.

Candles make for lovely gifts, whether it's from a go-to brand like Jo Malone, Diptyque or Byredo or you know that the gift recipient is a devoted fan of a certain home fragrance.

Personalising gifts can upgrade the sentiment, and luckily both the well-known candle brands and smaller, customisable candle manufacturers cater to this need to find a personalised candle exclusively for a special person in your life.

While brands some luxury brands offer personalisation services in their store and online, other smaller outlets that stock on websites like Not On The High Street offer the option to customise as you buy. And there's certainly no frowning here if you chose to gift yourself a unique candle either.
