Who
we are
At Makin' Scents, we’re bringing our 30 years of candle-making experience to the high street. We also run Bespoke Candles, a working candle factory right here in Bangor, and now we’ve created a space where you can shop beautiful locally made candles, dip your own, or join us upstairs for fun, hands-on workshops. Whether you're here for a gift or a glass of prosecco while you pour your own creation, we’re all about sharing the joy of candles.
