Five Essential Black Owned Candle Companies

Smell goods are essential to my home, so I’m sharing my favorite Black owned candle companies for you to enjoy & support.

Zipora Scents

Favorite scent: Warm Shea

Warm Shea is the perfect name for this candle. This DMV-based company nailed the comforting scent of pure shea butter with this candle. I need a case of 20. Also — outside of candles, Zipora Scents also offers wick trimmers, room sprays and wax melts.

illuminate B. Candles

Favorite scent: Midnight

This is one of my favorite scents for unwinding or working on a project late night. It’s so smooth and carries a beautiful deep scent. Anything with musk, vanilla and amber? I’m sold automatically. It truly smells like a really good cologne.

Cavo Candles

Favorite scent: After A Good Cry

Words can’t describe how much I like this candle, so if you really wanna see how I feel about this one, check out my Instagram video featuring them here. ;)

Cadence Candle Co

Favorite scent: Better Days

Not only do these candles smell good, they come with curated playlists on each product box — and trust me, they’re A1. The combination of cardamom, oud wood and patchouli will take you exactly where you need to be.

Dear Sunday Co.

Favorite scent: Ugh, Those Feels

The Snoh Aalegra approved candle line never misses. This candle was my first introduction to the line and I’ve introduced so many people to it since. Ugh, Those Feels is the perfect blend of saffron, amber, apple and black currant. Don’t miss out.
