By elevating our relationship with fragrance, we elevate our lives.

With two locations in Charleston, South Carolina, and Boston, Massachusetts, Candlefish is a unique storefront and workshop with a focus on all things fragrance. We’re known for our library of 100 signature scents—a collection of distinctly unnamed candles that encourage customers to follow their instincts, rather than preconceived notions. A joyful exploration of scent and beauty, our shops are filled to the brim not only with candles, but accessories, decor, and complementary treasures, too.

Candlefish is proud to partner with the artists and makers who make our cities so special. For more information on the program, or to nominate an artist you love, get in touch via email at info@candlefish.com!

Curious about candle-making? Candlefish offers daily workshops at both locations, the perfect group activity or solo creative endeavor. Our expert chandlers (that’s “candle makers” to those in the know) lead participants through the process, from choosing a scent to mixing and pouring. Each 90-minute workshop results in two custom candles ready for pick-up the following day.

At Candlefish, we’re guided as much by beauty and artistry as we are by fragrance, embracing the link between the visual and the sensory. This idea serves as the inspiration for our Artist Collaboration project, an ongoing celebration of the makers and creatives in our home cities. Each season, we work with an up-and-coming artist on an exclusive label featuring original artwork, as well as an imaginative window mural at our storefront. Throughout the program, all profits from these collaborative candles benefit a local, arts-focused cause, helping to support and elevate each city's creative community.
