Why our customers keep coming back

What You're Burning Matters.

You care about what you bring into your home: the air your kids breathe, the spot your pets curl up next to. Most candles weren't made with that in mind.

Ours are. Clean soy wax, a natural cotton wick, and phthalate-free fragrance give you all the warmth of a candle with none of the stuff you've been trying to avoid.

Questions? We've Got Answers

Are your candles safe around kids and pets?

Our candles are made with 100% soy wax, cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance oils — no paraffin, parabens, or synthetic dyes. As with any candle, never leave it burning unattended, and keep it out of reach of little hands and paws. Prefer no flame at all? Try a reed diffuser, room spray, or wax melts.

How long do they last?

Our 10oz candles burn for about 95 hours. The 16oz has three wicks for a bigger scent throw and burns about 55 hours. Reed diffusers last 12–18 months or longer depending on your space. Each room spray bottle gives you about 550–630 sprays.

How much is shipping?

Orders of $75 or more ship free anywhere in the U.S. Under $75, shipping starts at $4.99, and your exact rate is shown at checkout. Orders ship in 3–5 business days. Local? Choose pickup at checkout.

What if I don't love my scent?
