The Fuckboy Repellent candle is a 285g soy wax candle from House of Scandal, an Australian candle brand, scented with sage, chamomile, geranium and lavender. The joke is on the label, and the scent is a calming, herbal one meant for winding down at night. UK buyers see it at £40 on House of Scandal's own shop, which ships from Australia.
House of Scandal pitches each scent with a job to do. Here the sage is there "to rid you of negative spirits", chamomile and geranium to uplift and relax, and lavender "to help you sleep through those 2 AM 'what you up to' texts".
Hannah Patrick started the brand to make luxury candles at an accessible price. Each candle is hand poured with soy wax and a fragrance blend. In a 2025 profile, Rolling Stone Australia named Fuckboy Repellent as one of the brand's signature candles, alongside Trophy Wife, and reported that Patrick keeps production in Australia.
It suits a friend who has just ended things with someone, or anyone who likes a candle with a punchline. Because the scent leans on lavender and chamomile, it also works as a bedside candle.
The name will not suit every home, though, so think about who will see it on the shelf. For more presents around the same price, see our best gifts under £50 guide.
It ships from Australia, and the shop only shows the delivery cost at checkout. That makes the final price harder to judge than a UK candle's.
House of Scandal does not publish a burn time, so you cannot compare it on hours per pound.
The shop is also running sitewide reductions. Prices on other candles have moved with them, so the £40 may change.
House of Scandal sells it direct and shows UK visitors prices in pounds. We could not find it on Amazon UK or at a UK stockist.
£40 for UK shoppers on House of Scandal's site on 21 October 2026, plus delivery from Australia.
