Here’s everything you might be wondering—and a few things you didn’t know you needed to ask.

FAQs

What makes your candles different?

Our candles are named after experiences, not just scents. Like Golden Hour & Happy Hour or Sunday Scaries, Monday Realities. Every label is part mood, part memory, totally giftable. You shop by collection, so it feels personal, not generic.

Can I customize a candle?

 You bet. Choose a "Custom Candle" to start from scratch. Add a name, a date, an inside joke.

What are the candles made of?

Non-toxic because what we breathe matters. They are virgin coconut‑soy wax, as luxe as your favorite cashmere sweater. These candles are vegan, carcinogen-free, phthalate-free, mutagen-free, cruelty-free and recyclable. Sustainably extra.
