About Big Black Candle Co.
Big Black Candle Co. is a mood.
Born in Chicago, shaped by time spent in Brooklyn and Philly, and raised on the kind of music that knew how to say two things at once. The harmonies of Brandy and Dru Hill. The honesty of Tupac. The confidence of Biggie. Smooth when it needed to be, raw when it had to tell the truth.
Our candles speak that same language.
Nothing here is loud just to be loud. The names flirt. The scents linger. The meanings unfold slowly. Every candle is built on double entendre. Clean enough to sit on your shelf. Grown enough to make you smirk when you light it. They say one thing out loud and something else under their breath.
This brand comes from a life lived in multiple lanes. Corporate days. Creative nights. Grown conversations. Quiet wins. Long stretches of minding your business and enjoying your space. Big Black Candle Co. exists for people who understand that luxury isn’t about excess — it’s about control, confidence, and timing.
We hand-pour every candle in small batches, keeping quality tight and intentions clear. Some scents are clean and calming. Others are dark, warm, and suggestive. All of them are designed to set a tone without ever having to explain themselves.
We don’t shout. We let the room lean in.
If you’ve ever let a song play a little longer because it felt right… If you understand how something can be smooth and dangerous… If you appreciate a good setup and an even better payoff…
You’re already home.
Once you go black, you never go back.
Why Our Candles
Our candles are made with a premium soy wax blend, chosen for a cleaner burn, stronger scent throw, and a smoother finish. We use high-quality fragrance oils that are layered, intentional, and built to evolve as they burn — not hit you all at once and disappear.
That means:
- A slow, even burn
- Scents that open, deepen, and linger
- No shortcuts, fillers, or flat notes
Each blend is tested, tuned, and poured with the same care you put into setting a vibe. Whether the room calls for something soft and clean or dark and indulgent, our candles are designed to meet the moment — and then stay with you.
Big Black Candle Co. doesn’t rush the experience. We let it build.
