Why it's different from every
luxury candle you've burned.
Most luxury candles are luxury in price only. The ingredients tell a different story.
100% essential oil fragrance — fully disclosed
Most luxury candle brands list "fragrance" as a single ingredient — a term that legally covers dozens of undisclosed compounds. Lorne names every botanical note on the label. Always.
No paraffin. No petroleum. No soot.
Most luxury candles use paraffin — a petroleum-derived wax linked to unwanted airborne byproducts. Our soy-coconut blend burns cooler, cleaner, and with significantly less soot.
50+ hours. Most luxury candles burn 35–40.
Botanical wax burns at a lower temperature — longer, more even, more fragrant. Your $85 goes further than an $85 candle from any major luxury house.
The vessel is designed to be kept.
When your candle is finished, the vessel stays. A refill ships on your schedule — same wax, same fragrance, 20% less than the original. A ritual that costs less over time, not more.
Gift-ready. Always.
Debossed matte packaging. No ribbon, no tissue, no wrapping required. The kind of gift that makes someone feel seen — before they've even opened it.
The launch collection
Four scents.
One ritual.
Named for moments, not botanicals. Each scent is a complete sensory world — minimal notes, maximum intention.

Early feedback
★★★★★
"Finally a candle I can burn without worrying. And it smells incredible — better than anything I've paid double for."
★★★★★
"I gave one to my sister and she texted me the next morning demanding to know where I got it. That's never happened with a candle before."
★★★★★
"I have a sensitivity to synthetic fragrance. I've been searching for something like this for three years. The burn is extraordinary."

The founder
"I spent years buying the best candles I could find. Then I started reading the ingredients."
I'm a clean beauty convert — skincare, food, cleaning products, all of it. But I kept lighting my luxury candles without a second thought. The day I looked up what "fragrance" actually means on a candle label was the day Lorne began. Two years and 47 wax blends later, this is what clean luxury actually looks like.
