Citronella Terracotta Pot & Candle 15cm - Large, 10 Hour Burn Time

Citronella Terracotta Pot & Candle is designed for outdoor use where a larger candle and longer-lasting burn are needed. Set in a terracotta pot, it has a natural, practical look that sits well on garden tables, patios, terraces and outdoor entertaining spaces, while the citronella fragrance adds a clean and refreshing scent to the air.

One of the qualities that sets this candle apart is its cleaner-burning performance. When used, it produces far less of the black smoke often associated with many cheaper alternatives, helping make the outdoor experience more pleasant. The candle is also poured with the wick in place rather than pressed or drilled, giving it a more refined finish and steadier burn.

Its extra-thick wick is especially helpful outdoors, where breeze and gusts can affect a standard flame. This makes it a practical choice for British gardens, summer evenings and outdoor meals, where dependable performance matters just as much as atmosphere.

Citronella has long been appreciated as a classic outdoor fragrance, known for its fresh, sharp and clean character. In a large terracotta format like this, it becomes both a practical candle and an attractive seasonal accessory, useful for creating a more comfortable and inviting outdoor setting.

Whether used at the centre of an outside dining table or placed within a wider garden arrangement, this candle offers a simple way to bring together light, fragrance and a more enjoyable outdoor atmosphere.
