There are many places we love in Newport Beach, but Lido is always a favorite.
It’s where you settle in with a glass of wine on the deck. Live music playing. Boats drifting by as the sun sets.
Boutique shopping in the village. Classic films at the historic 1938 theater. Evenings at relaxed, stylish restaurants that feel both local and elevated.
Lido is the kind of place you return to again and again. Casually vibrant. Effortlessly elegant. Unmistakably familiar.
That feeling — grounded, warm, and timeless — is what inspired LIDO.

Candle Care
➕ On your first use, burn your candle for 2 hours to allow the wax to melt evenly to the edge of the jar.
➕ after your candle cools, wipe any black residue off of the top with a paper towel to keep it looking good as new!
➕ Always trim the wick to 1/4 inch before relighting to avoid a large flame, smoking and wax discoloration.
➕ Fluctuations in temperature can cause the wax to contract and pull away from the sides of the glass. This is common when candles are shipped or stored in environments with varying temperature. Once the candle is lit, you will see the contraction of the wax correct itself.
Product Details
We use a proprietary blended soy/vegetable wax, phthalate-free premium fragrance oil, and lead-free wick.

What They're Saying
Reviews
I found the Backhouse a few years ago and I’m so grateful that I did. I’m a bit of a candle snob, so I like candles that are nontoxic, have a strong scent, but not too strong. The Lido is my favorite scent. I love patchouli and sandalwood and this candle meets those expectations, in a lighter form. The large version lasts a long time and always burns clean, which is why I keep coming back.
I can’t live without my Backhouse Fragrances… Thank you, Danielle! Keep up the great work! 🙌🏼
I have placed several orders for gifts and for myself from BH. They always come promptly with beautiful packing and presentation. The scents are amazing and it’s hard to pick a favorite but I’m in love with the giant Lido candle! Danielle is a true artist and does incredible work!
The new 4-wick looks and smells amazing and the packaging is impeccable! Love it in my home - and this is my new go-to gift!
Love it!!! I just found this company and I’m so excited!! I finally found a scent I really like and it’s lasting forever!!
Backhouse candles are my absolute favorite! The Lido scent elevates any space it's in. What I love most is that the candle burns all the way down to the bottom so there is not waste.
Absolutely love these candles!! I have ordered many tome!!
I love this hand soap! It keeps my hands soft and smells great. Visitors in my home ask where to get this soap. I tell them of this great company! Another staple in my home!
The packaging was so pretty, and included a couple of sweet extra touches. This is worth the price and would make a very special gift.
I get the Big BH every month! Is what I burn every day! Burns clean, nice throw, soft, beautiful smell! Is been a while since I bought any other candles!
Absolutely the best candle I have ever purchased! Smells amazing! It comes beautifully packaged, too! Presentation is above and beyond!
Absolutely the best customer service, too! :)
I have purchased this scent amany times in other sizes and it’s one of my favorites to gift or burn in my home. You will love it! This Christmas I purchased the Big 4 wick for client gifts and I was beyond happy with the container and presentation. The bonus is Danielle is so kind and wonderful to work with!
It always puts the biggest smile on my clients faces when they open my gift and it's a Backhouse candle! This time I added hand soap and it was a hit!
Thank you for making me look so good... I already need more!
