The best reed diffusers!

First bought a reed diffuser from here at a farmers market in Saltaire. It lasted for ages and smelled amazing! Had to have more so made an online order for two reed diffusers that are just as good as the first. Fast delivery and came with a handwritten thank you note from the owner which was lovely. I like to shop from small businesses, Priestley’s is definitely a favourite for reed diffusers now.

The best wax melts I’ve ever smelt

The best wax melts I’ve ever smelt! My dad got me some for my birthday and they smelled amazing and the first wax melts I’ve had that are really strong smelling and fill the whole room with a lasting smell. I’ve just ordered 5 different scents and every single one of them is beautiful! Emma was also lovely and helpful when I enquired about a small delivery delay. Thank you! X

Lovely wax melts.

I was introduced to this product by a friend of a friend. I find some of the scents really good and long lasting. The wax melts are really good and can last for days before renewing.

Great long lasting wax melts and friendly service x

I bought a large variety of wax melts from this company whilst at the Dean Clough artisan market and they are some of the best wax melts I have had in a long while, the scent lasts too, I also bought an owl plug in warmer too and he looks super cute in my kitchen whilst he makes my kitchen smell lush. I love the black plum and rhubarb one the best so far, I highly recommend this company and will defo be buying more from them xxx

Excellent product

I was given a Tahiti diffuser for my birthday and it's the longest lasting one I have ever had, after 3 months usage I ordered a replacement, it came within 2 days . Excellent product and company.
