The Mere & Moss Story

Every Fragance collection begins with a walk through the Lake District. Quite landscapes become moments of calm at home.

Where it all began

Mere & Moss wasn't created in a boardroom. It grew quietly, one walk at a time.

Living on the edge of the Lake District, I found myself returning to the fells, meres and woodland paths. Those walks became a place to think, heal and rediscover what mattered most.

Over time, an idea emerged: to create home fragrances that don't simply smell beautiful, but capture the calm these landscapes leave behind.

Every candle, wax melt, diffuser and room spray is hand-poured in my cottage in Cockermouth, inspired by the place I call home.

Everyone deserves a place to feel peaceful.

Mere & Moss began with a simple belief: everyone deserves to come home to a place that feels peaceful.

Surrounded by fells, meres and changing seasons, I wanted to create home fragrances that capture the beauty of this landscape — not by copying nature exactly, but by recreating the feeling it leaves behind.

A walk. A moment. A new beginning.

Over six months, I walked the paths, lakes and woodlands around my home, refining ideas, choosing fragrances and imagining a brand that reflected the feeling I found outdoors.

During a difficult period in my life, someone close to me said something that stayed with me:

“Everything is going to be OK. You’re going to make candles.”

Those words became the beginning of Mere & Moss.

Thoughtfully made in small batches.

Every product is hand-poured in small batches using natural soy /ECO wax, carefully selected fragrance oils and thoughtfully chosen materials.

Nothing is rushed. Every fragrance is tested, refined and poured with care because the little details are what transform a house into a home.

More than fragrance.

Fragrance changes more than a room. It changes how we feel.

A quiet morning.
A slow evening.
Time with family.
A moment to yourself after a busy day.

If Mere & Moss becomes a small part of those moments, then it has done exactly what it was created to do.

Thank you for supporting a small independent business. I hope each product brings a little of the calm, comfort and beauty of the Lake District into your home.

With thanks,
