Harry Styles slammed for selling ‘overpriced’ fragrance-inspired candles as fans claim \u00a380 gifts are a ‘money grab’\u00a0<\/h1>\n

Harry Styles has been slammed for selling an ‘overpriced’ fragrance-inspired candle collection.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The singer, 29, launched his lifestyle brand\u00a0Pleasing in 2021, first selling a line of perfumes before branching out into\u00a0nail polishes and clothing.<\/p>\n

But after announcing the\u00a0brand\u2019s latest collection \u2013 jar candles – this week, Harry was met by backlash from fans who branded the \u00a380 gifts ‘a money grab.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

The scented candles are available in three different options,\u00a0inspired by the brand’s perfume range.<\/p>\n

The Bright, Hot Candle, comes in an orange-tinted glass jar, which follows the\u00a0 \u00a3135.00 perfume of the same name.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The singer, launched his lifestyle brand Pleasing in 2021, first selling a line of perfumes before branching out into nail polishes and clothing<\/p>\n

Sharing their thoughts online, one fan wrote on X:\u00a0‘$80 for an 8oz candle @HarryStyles are you off your f***ing rocker?’<\/p>\n

‘I love Harry Styles but my hot take is that Pleasing is not at all a well thought out or executed brand and it feels like a money grab.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘Harry Styles baby I love you but I’m not paying $80 for a candle,’ another shared.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘Breaking my silence. Pleasing is overprice AF well I know it’a Harry Styles\u2019 but that brand is literally BRAND NEW (esp for the perfume and scented candle) and the price is equivalent to Dior, Prada etc etc likeee :\/’ someone else posted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One person questioned: ‘Why in gods names is your website so expensive @HarryStyles. Who can afford this stuff????’\u00a0<\/p>\n

The vegan candles are made of soy wax and the\u00a0packaging is also environmentally friendly \u2013 with 100% compostable paper materials and soy and water-based inks.<\/p>\n

The range is available to buy online on the Pleasing website.<\/p>\n

The brand has recently started selling their range in Selfridges across the UK as well as\u00a0stores in New York City and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

In August it was revealed that\u00a0Harry\u00a0was\u00a0set to follow in Gwyneth Paltrow’s footsteps\u00a0as he geared up to launch his own ‘sex-themed’ perfume.<\/p>\n

Following the announcement of the appointment Harry said of Sean: ‘His\u00a0 exceptional vision and extensive experience will be invaluable as we enter the next chapter of Pleasing’.<\/p>\n

In April the brand released its latest nail polish and apparel collection, Pollinator, inspired by the local wildlife in Harry’s North London neighbourhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n
