Candles with Purpose. Scent with Meaning.

At Seven + Ember, our story began with a simple but powerful belief: candles should do more than scent a room—they should elevate your space, shift your mood, and support your well-being.

Inspired by the unconditional love for my seven children, I set out to create something meaningful: handcrafted, clean-burning scented candles made with intention, free from toxins, paraffin, and synthetic ingredients.

Every candle is thoughtfully designed to be as beautiful as it is beneficial—crafted to inspire calm, clarity, focus, or comfort, depending on the scent you choose. These aren’t just candles; they’re tools for transformation, rooted in nature and guided by science.

From our mud-brick studio in the serene Kinglake Ranges of Victoria, each batch is poured by hand using ethically sourced, sustainable ingredients. We believe in doing good—for you, your home, and the planet. That’s why we use eco-conscious packaging and partner with One Tree Planted to give back with every purchase.

At Seven + Ember, we craft fragrance with feeling. Whether you're starting your day, setting an intention, or winding down, lighting one of our candles becomes a mindful ritual—your moment to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Your home: Scent your mood.

 

"Scent is powerful—it has the extraordinary ability to transport us. It connects us to memory, stirs deep emotion, and shifts the energy around us. As a mother of seven and a lifelong candle lover, I wanted to craft atmosphere—moments that speak without words and linger in the heart.

I wasn’t interested in making just another scented candle. I set out to create something more meaningful—an emotional experience. Clean, conscious, and intentionally designed. This is more than scent. It’s memory, mood, and feeling—brought to life through fragrance."

Love always, Rachel Xx
