Early days
At the time of the release, Aidan was completing his course at Northumbria University while Ru was studying at a local sixth form.
The remainder of the year was full of excitement - from releasing new scents (such as Orange Zest, Strawberry & Rhubarb and Blueberry Pancakes) to attending a Christmas Fair at a local college, Aidan and Ru were spending any and all of their spare time on the growth and development of the business.
In late 2019, the boys secured their first stockist and the candles could be found on sale in a physical shopfront for the first time.
