An olfactive ode to the art of subversion, Murray Cod Pepper Rocks is a blend like no other. Designed in collaboration with chef and sustainability stalwart Josh Niland, this bespoke scent speaks to the magic that awaits us when we push beyond the boundaries of what’s possible.
Echoing the scale-to-tail ethos Niland champions at his Sydney restaurant Saint Peter, Murray Cod Pepper Rocks is crafted using spare fat from the Murray Cod fish. Initially, it might not seem like the most enticing of introductions – but we believe we’ve created one of our most intoxicating blends to date.
At its heart, Murray Cod Pepper Rocks is a velvety, burn that brings a symbiosis of salt and earth to the surface. Distinctly marine sans the fishy smell, it’s a luxurious aroma that demands little more than the subtle notes of the Murray cod’s natural habitat – think fallen red gums and moss-covered rocks, with a touch of pink peppercorn atop a woody cedar base.
We are eternally grateful to Josh, Julia and Ben for bringing this type of craft into the conversation. It recalibrates the way I think about how candles are made, and about what other possibilities may be out there when it comes to less common mediums that may be readily available. It’s only sensible that we keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible when it comes to sustainability.

This was a real surprise. I had looked at this one on and off for months. The name really made me nervous. I had visions of that awful smell that lingered forever after cooking fish 🤪. Totally the opposite. It had a double wick and the scent is unreal!!I really love this candle, Give it a go, you’ll be happy you did. Thanx Hunter candles

A must try
Put aside any pre-conceived ideas you may have about this candle. It is not what you expect! Fresh, bright and earthy - burning this candle will transport you to a meandering creek in the Aussie bush. This is innovation at its best!

My top 3 scent!
I was skeptical but Tara at the Strand shop convinced me and I’m glad I tried it! I only leave it on for max an hour and it makes my home smell amazing for hours after. I was very pleasantly surprised.

Don’t be afraid…
Don’t be afraid of this candle! I was a little nervous of a fish fat candle but it’s such a refreshing and salty fragrance that only Vianney has the mastery to pull off.I have gone back for seconds on this beauty, because it is THAT good.
