About Us
The Clean Candles Story
Born from a love of scent and a desire to slow down, Clean Candles is a South African brand rooted in stillness. Hand-poured in small batches in Cape Town, each candle is crafted with care — an invitation to pause, breathe, and come home to yourself. We use clean, conscious ingredients and soft, layered scents to fill your space with comfort and calm.
What goes into our Candles
We use only clean, conscious ingredients:
- 91% natural soy wax
- 3% coconut oil
- 6% IFRA-certified fragrance oils
- Lead-free cotton wicks
- No parabens. No phthalates
Gentle on you — and the planet.
0ur Packing Philosophy
We keep things minimal — in scent and design. Every Clean Candle comes in a recyclable glass jar with a bamboo lid, kraft label, and biodegradable wrap. Thoughtfully packaged for gifting, with the earth in mind.
Our Mission
We believe scent is more than aroma — it’s memory, ritual, and home. Our mission is to create candles that nurture well-being and bring calm to your everyday life, using only clean ingredients and sustainable materials. We support ethical craftsmanship, local production, and a slower, more intentional way of living.
