As featured in Metro: Sustainable swaps for World Earth Day 2026
To mark Earth Day, Metro highlighted Ouverture London as part of its edit of everyday sustainable swaps, featuring our Evoking Côtes de Provence candle as a more considered approach to home fragrance.
Recognising the environmental impact of traditional candles, the feature spotlighted Ouverture London’s use of ProTerra-certified soy wax, lead-free cotton wicks, and refillable engraved metal vessels designed to be used again and again.
Evoking Côtes de Provence, inspired by its namesake region, combines notes of pink grapefruit, soft florals, sea salt, and sun-bleached woods, creating a scent that captures a sense of place while reflecting a commitment to longer-lasting, more sustainable home fragrance.
