About Us

Welcome to Prim & Proper By Maxi,

I'm Amanda-Jayne, the founder of the brand.

I am very grateful you have stopped by, and are taking the time out of your busy lives to learn a little about Prim & Proper By Maxi.  

I am a mother of four gorgeous children, all adults now mostly with children of their own, so yes I'm a very proud Nanna .

I have over ten years experience in the craft of candle making proffessionally, prior to that I enjoyed making candles and oils to fragrance my own homes.

Friends would often be given experimental offerings to test and try. They became the best critics and also inspirations, as they were the ones who gave me the push to share the fragrances with you all.

Based in the North Yorkshire Region of the UK, I am surrounded by exceptional countryside from the Lake District to the Yorkshire Dales. I am also very fortunate to be just a stones throw away from the world renowned Castle Howard.

Being from Yorkshire has inspired and helped me to create a truly honest brand.

I truly believe that a chosen fragrance is an extension of you, your style and your mood, therefore it is important to me that I help you to get it right.

For a scent will have you traveling back in time to the senses of a special moment in your life

The home fragrance range offers a range of options to scent your home:

Diffusers that will gently release your chosen fragrance all day long.
Candles promote ultimate relaxation from a cosy night in to a romantic evening with a loved one.
Wax melts, are fast becoming very popular. If you aren't sure what your prefered fragrance is why not try the melts. They are great little testers to trial in your home.
Enjoy a relaxing bubble bath with soft music by candle light and let the fragrance lift you away to tranquillity.

Made for you with love xx

Prim & Proper By Maxi is named in honour of a close and dear friend of mine Maxine Farquharson who passed away leaving a huge gap in the hearts of those who knew and loved her dearly. She lit up the room when she entered with class, grace and elegance. She was always very Prim & Proper. x
