Housewarming & New Home Gifts
HOUSEWARMING & NEW HOME GIFTS
A candle or reed diffuser is the classic new home gift for a reason: everybody uses them, nobody already has too many, and a new house is exactly when someone wants it to smell like theirs.
Every fragrance here is £29.99 and arrives in a signature William Alexander gift box — beautifully packaged and ready to give, with no additional wrapping needed.
Choosing for Someone Else
The scents on this page are the ones we would send to someone whose taste we did not know. They are the crowd-pleasers — fresh, clean or softly warm, rather than divisive.
- Hamptons Fresh Linen — the safest choice we make. It smells like a clean house, which is exactly what someone wants in a new one.
- Lime Basil Mandarin — bright citrus and basil. Fresh, smart and universally liked.
- Byron Bay Sandalwood & Cedar — warm, woody and unisex. Good for a couple, or when you are buying for a man and hesitating.
- One & Only — our signature blackcurrant and birch. The one people come back for.
- Madagascar Vanilla & Amber — vanilla done properly, warm rather than sugary.
Candle or Diffuser for a New Home?
If you are not sure, choose the reed diffuser. It works continuously for up to 12 weeks with no flame, which suits a house that is still half full of boxes, and it keeps working while they unpack. A 220g soy candle gives up to 100 hours and makes the better moment to open.
Buying for a couple or a bigger gesture? Many people send both — the candle to light on the first evening, the diffuser for the hallway.
