We have a long history with wisteria, from the flower-festooned walls in Granada on our first wedding anniversary to the wisteria we tried to grow in a pot next to our front door in England. But now (finally!) we have it growing abundantly in our garden here in Spain and it’s a divine scent that says ‘home’ to us. Wisteria is a stunning, one-of-a-kind fragrance anywhere, but when it’s flowering in pure mountain air, the beauty of its perfume is life-affirming.
“Since our first visits to Spain, to the walls of hanging wisteria in Granada, we’ve been haunted by the narcotic scent and determined to capture it.”

About Welcome to La Montaña – a range of gorgeous home fragrances inspired by the founders’ new life in a Spanish mountain village. Fill your home with warm fragrances of the Mediterranean!
“On our mountain, at first light, there’s a heavenly fragrance in the air. Before anyone starts an engine, or lights a fire, the air is clear, and still, and silent. The first breath of the day carries the perfume of wild mountain herbs; fennel, rosemary, mountain pepper, and intoxicating rockrose. The alchemy of these fragrances, blended naturally on the breeze, weaves a magical spell… The inspiration for our first candle, First Light.”
We are a passionate and family-owned business – to us, La Montaña is personal, real and nostalgic.
La Montaña home fragrances conjure up memories and dreams of the Mediterranean, and of holidays in the sun. They’re guaranteed not only to smell wonderful, but also to look great on the mantlepiece – each one bears its own unique and collectable label in the style of a nostalgic 1930’s travel poster. La Montaña fragrances truly are affordable luxuries.
