Not every moment needs an occasion. A page turned. A window open after rain. The last light on the wall. We make fragrances for the space between what happened and what comes next.
Vel & WicksConsidered ingredients and an unhurried process. The details are part of the ritual.
Light something. Let the room become somewhere else.
Vel & Wicks · An invitation to lingerThe plain details behind the atmosphere. No mystery where it matters.
Our candles are made without phthalates or parabens, with soy wax and cotton wicks. “Non-toxic” is not a blanket safety guarantee; as with any candle, burn in a well-ventilated space and follow the care instructions.
Each candle is made with soy wax, a cotton wick, and a fragrance blend composed for its individual scent profile. They are hand-poured in small batches.
Burn time varies by vessel size, wick care, and how long you burn it at a time. The 7 oz and 10 oz vessels will not have the same burn duration. For best results, trim the wick before each use and allow an even melt pool to form.
Our candles are hand poured in Ottawa.
We make a small, considered collection rather than an endless catalogue. Every scent has its own layered character, and every vessel is chosen to feel at home long after the last burn.
Trim the wick before each burn, keep the candle on a stable heat-resistant surface, and never leave a lit candle unattended. Stop use when a small amount of wax remains at the bottom.
