Create a Candle That’s Uniquely Yours
Looking for the perfect gift, a thoughtful gesture for a special occasion, or a personal indulgence? We offer fully custom fragrances crafted just for you.
We start with a 15-minute chat, where we discuss the scents you love and the inspiration behind your candle. Then, I’ll craft a few fragrance options for you to choose from. You also get to pick the vessel and name your scent.
Whether you’d like a single candle or a larger order, we can accommodate your needs. For orders of six or more, we’ll send samples so you can experience and refine your fragrance before your final selection.
All candles are 10oz and hand-poured with a premium soy–coconut wax blend, finished with our standard label.
For orders of 12 or more, please inquire for pricing at info@bougiebyjoelle.com.
