The Distant Hours

The Distant Hours

by Kate Morton (2010)

A letter arrives fifty years late. It leads Edie Burchill to Milderhurst Castle, where three elderly sisters have been circling the same secret since the war. Crumbling Kent countryside, damp stone, and a children's book called The True History of the Mud Man that holds more truth than anyone wants to admit. Morton wrote this one for readers who treat October as a month-long appointment with a novel.

The Secret History

The Secret History

by Donna Tartt (1992)

Six classics students at a small Vermont college. A charismatic professor. Long weekends in a country house as the semester deepens into autumn. Then a murder, committed before the story even begins, and the slow unravelling of everyone involved. Tartt wrote the definitive campus novel and set it in the season that suits secrets best.

In the Night Wood

In the Night Wood

by Dale Bailey (2018)

A grieving couple inherits a crumbling English estate at the edge of an ancient oak forest. Charles is there to research the house's Victorian ancestor, who wrote a single, unsettling children's book. Then the wood starts answering back. Folk horror, literary myth, and a house surrounded by trees that have been standing long enough to remember things they shouldn't.

Iris: Cool, powdery, faintly violet. Iris has the quiet sophistication of a first frost on a window ledge. It lifts the heavier notes beneath it just enough to stop the blend from sinking into the soil. Autumn fiction needs a clean opening line. This is it.

Labdanum: Warm, ambery, slightly honeyed with a resinous edge. Labdanum smells like soft leather left in the sun, the last golden afternoon before the clocks go back. It gives this blend its glow, the richness that makes you reach for the blanket before you've registered the cold.

Velvet Woods: Smooth, rounded, deliberately soft. Velvet woods fills the space between the brightness of the iris and the darkness of the patchouli without competing with either. It reads like woodsmoke seen through a window, present and comforting, just far enough away to feel romantic.

Patchouli: Deep, earthy, faintly decayed. Patchouli is wet leaves, turned soil, the smell of a garden that's been left to do what it wants since August. It pulls the whole blend into the ground where autumn lives, underneath the golden surface, where everything is rich and dark and slowly composting into next year's story.

Your Questions Answered

local_shipping How long does shipping take?
expand_more

We ship between 1 and 3 business days, though some orders are shipped on the same day depending on when the order was placed. We use Royal Mail 48 Tracked, which means that after an order is received by Royal Mail, it should reach your home within 48 hours. Please note that during busier periods of the year, these delivery times may differ slightly.

chat_error I have a missing or incorrect wax melt in my package. What should I do?
expand_more

While we strive for 100% accuracy, we are human and mistakes can occasionally happen! If you find a scent is missing or you’ve received the wrong bar, please contact us at info@waxandwords.co.uk with your order number and a photo of the items that arrived. We will prioritise getting the correct melts sent out to you immediately.

local_florist Are your wax melts vegan-friendly and cruelty-free?
expand_more

Yes. Our wax melts are crafted using plant-based coconut wax, which is sustainable, biodegradable, and vegan-friendly. We also ensure that none of our ingredients, including our fragrance oils, are ever tested on animals.

mop How do I remove the old wax from my burner?
expand_more

The cleanest way to swap scents is to wait until the wax has completely cooled and hardened. Light your tealight (or turn on your electric warmer) for about 30 seconds - just long enough to loosen the base. The solid disc should slide out easily. Simply wipe the well with a paper towel to remove any remaining residue before adding a new scent.

PRO TIP: Use wax melt liners or silicone trays. This is the easiest way: once the melt is solidified inside the liner or tray, simply pop it out and discard. You can even use the old wax as a fire starter for your fireplace or fire pit!

emergency_heat Why is there "smoke" coming from my wax?
expand_more

In most cases, this is not smoke but fragrance vapour. When the oil is heated, it evaporates to release the aroma into the room. If the vapour is white and wispy, it is perfectly normal. However, if you see dark smoke, it may be a sign that your tealight is too large or the burner is getting too hot.

pets Can I use these melts around pets?
expand_more

While our wax melts are safe for general home use, it is important to ensure the room is well-ventilated. Some pets can be sensitive to certain strong fragrances or specific essential oils. We recommend keeping burners out of reach of curious paws and observing your pet for any signs of discomfort when trying a new scent.

healing Why is the bottom of a wax melt cube uneven?
expand_more

An uneven or slightly bumpy base is actually proof that we use natural coconut wax. These "imperfections" are purely aesthetic and occur due to micro-variations in temperature while the wax is cooling, during storage, or even whilst being shipped to your home. It has absolutely no impact on the quality or the incredible scent throw of the melt.

balance Why do some cubes have a slight difference in weight?
expand_more

Each cube is hand-poured, so slight variations in wax weight are completely normal. The important part is the fragrance oil, which is measured using 0.001g precision scales and is always exactly the same. A tiny difference in wax has no impact on scent throw.
