I THOUGHT I WAS MAKING CANDLES. I WAS REALLY CREATING A FEELING.

Hey, I'm Karen, founder of Scotts.

After 20 years as a fashion buyer, redundancy gave me the unexpected opportunity to create something of my own. I started making home fragrance because I couldn't find what I wanted — beautiful, long-lasting fragrance that actually made a difference to how a home felt.

But I've realised Scotts has always been about more than candles and reed diffusers.

It's about the feeling when you walk through your front door.

The little ritual that marks the end of a busy day.

The gift that makes someone feel genuinely thought of.

The laughter around a table at a candle-making workshop.

When your home smells good, life feels a little better.

That's the feeling I'm trying to create with everything I make.
