After 27 years of supplying quality products to soap and candle makers, we decided to close our business and retire. This decision was prompted earlier than we expected by significantly increased fragrance costs from our primary fragrance manufacturer. As a small candle supply company, we were no longer be able to offer reasonable pricing on our fragrances. We would have been required to purchase more than triple the volume we used buy in order to stay close to our previous prices. We simply could not afford such increases. We didn't want to change manufacturers because we relied on superior quality from our supplier and didn’t wish to compromise that quality. The new minimums were being implemented by the manufacturer due to significant increases in their raw materials and production costs.
We wish to thank you all for your support of our business, especially those of you that were with us for many years.

No, we do not make our fragrances. We purchased our fragrances primarily from two reputable and highly qualified fragrance manufacturers that have both been in business for decades. We did not buy fragrance s from other suppliers. We do sometimes blend some of the fragrances to create a different scent, but the actual manufacturing of the original fragrances is done only by professionals.

We still have about 80 different fragrances left in stock, including many long-time favorites and some of the newer scents that were added around the time we decided to retire.
