As the festive season begins, Simon James Home unveils its most giftable collection yet - a range of luxury soy candles designed to fill homes with warmth, comfort, and a touch of sparkle.


This year’s Festive Gift Season celebrates indulgent scents and thoughtful gifting, with signature favourites and subtle nods to festive fragrances - from the nostalgic sweetness of Gingerbread to the citrus-spiced charm of Orange Biscotti, and the winter-fresh sparkle of Berry Sorbet. Each candle is hand-poured in Kent, vegan, and crafted from sustainable soy wax, making them both luxurious and planet-friendly.
