Borne from Hunter Candles’ latest residency, The Strand is an immersive, opulent blend that instantly transports you to another world. A world where epicurean luxuries intermingle with creativity, mystery and memory. A world that leaves you captivated in its wake.
The unmistakable architecture of Sydney’s iconic Strand Arcade lays the foundation for its namesake scent, with the warmth of robust woods inspired by The Strand’s heritage elevators enveloping your senses in an old-worldly aura. As the ornate wooden doors slide open, a familiar nutty sweetness fills the air – The Nut Shop’s signature caramelised almonds calling your name from acrossthe bustling arcade.
As the sweetness subsides, your nose is met with intoxicating notes of neat whisky spilled, perhaps, on the floor of The Stranded – a haven of 80s hedonism where creatives came to play. While the club’s doors have long since closed, its intriguing, decadent spirit lingers to this day – and proves the perfect nightcap in our newest scent.

THE STRAND / wooden elevator, sticky almonds, spilled whiskeySale price$59.00
Decadent, layered, and utterly transportive — a scent steeped in history and indulgence
The Strand is not just a candle — it’s a time capsule. It opens with the polished elegance of old wood, evoking the creak of a heritage elevator and the hush of an ornate arcade steeped in quiet grandeur. Then, a swirl of sticky, caramelised almonds rises — sweet, nutty, and nostalgic, like a waft from The Nut Shop drifting through Sydney’s iconic Strand Arcade. As the scent deepens, it takes an intoxicating turn: a warm splash of spilled whiskey, evoking dimly lit corners of The Stranded, where creativity once danced with mischief and memory. This is a fragrance of contrasts — refined yet playful, sweet yet sultry — crafted with cinematic precision.
Why I adore it:
Old-world charm: The woody base grounds the scent in architectural elegance and history.
Decadent sweetness: The almond note is rich and nostalgic, never cloying, always warm.
Hedonistic finish: The whiskey lingers like a whispered secret from a forgotten party — smooth, bold, and irresistibly moody.
The Strand is an opulent reverie — a scent that pulls you into a golden moment and lets you linger there, just a little longer.

So warm and mysterious
Love this scent!! From when I smelt it the first time, I was hooked. I'm not sure if I'll be willing to use it actually.

Mad Men Mood candle
This candle has a wonderful woody retro vibe: think eames chairs, beehive hair, drinks carts and low light.
I LOVE it.
