Earthly Sense - Victoria

Earthly Sense was created from both a love of the Earth and of Fragrance. After many years of enjoying candles from all over the world, its Creator realised that there was not one single candle that EVER burnt to the base of the vessel. Wastage was always apparent and after the second or third relight – the fragrance was never the same, it never lasted. Most candles claim to be “natural” – 99% are not. It was time for a change. Time for a new Era in both Candles and Home Décor. This is where Earthly Sense began.

We introduce a new Era in conscious Living, through the 4 Elements – Earth, Wind, Fire & water. Earthly Sense is eco-conscious, sustainable homewares and décor. Our candles are made with natural, pure Coco Soy wax, cotton wicks and premium fragrance oils. They are free from leads, dyes, BPA or phthalates, making them a cleaner, longer-lasting burn. Earthly Sense offers an unparalleled & unique fragrance experience with hand-poured, custom-designed candles. Crafted with premium scent notes, and perfect for any home, our candles create a calming atmosphere with their delightful aroma. Earthly Sense – “Your sense lies within the Elements...” M. Mav, Creator & CEO.

CEO – Maria has several professions under her belt – from corporate marketing to mental health and even Teaching. An empath and highly conscious soul, she has always wanted to create something that shares her passion for fragrance and home, that is kind to the environment and to the living beings in it.

Earthly Sense began as an idea. A dream of a single Mum to start her own small business and allow herself to spend more time with family & loved ones. She wants to be environmentally conscious in the process and show others, especially her children, that anything is possible if you work hard at it.

“Never give up and don’t EVER shrink to fit!”, Maria laughs with conviction in her voice. “Everything big started off small – so just start where you are… work hard and believe. The rest will fall into place”. M.Mav
