Our Story

Made slowly,
on purpose.

Ember & Wick started in a cramped apartment kitchen in 2019 with a $40 wax kit and a mild obsession with why candles from the grocery store smelled like cleaning products.

We pour everything in small batches — 24 candles at a time — because quality and speed have never been friends. Every wick is hand-placed. Every label is hand-applied. Every scent blend is tested for at least 6 weeks before it earns a name.

We use 100% domestically-sourced soy wax, lead-free cotton wicks, and fragrance oils that meet IFRA safety standards. Nothing synthetic we can avoid. Nothing we haven't tested ourselves.

Custom Lab

Your scent.
From scratch.

Book a 45-minute scent consultation — in person at our studio or by video — and we'll build a custom fragrance blend around your memory, your space, your brief.

After the session, we pour a small test batch of 3–4 candles for you to live with. Once you've confirmed the scent, we can pour any quantity — from a single gift candle to 100-unit wholesale orders.

Understanding Base, Mid & Top Notes in Home Fragrance

Perfumers have known this for centuries: a scent is a story told in three acts. Here's how we apply that to every Ember & Wick blend.

Why We Still Pour by Hand (And What That Actually Changes)

Automated pouring is faster and more consistent. We chose not to. This is why the 12-minute cool-down window before wick-setting changes everything.
