Welcome to Black Culture Candles

Hi, I’m Lori, founder and candle maker behind Black Culture Candles.

I created this brand because I believe scent is more than fragrance. It’s memory; emotion. It’s a way to feel connected to ourselves, our space, the people we love, and to the culture that shaped us.

My mission is to take you on a Scent Journey through Joy, Culture, and Connection with candles inspired by our shared memories and experiences.

Each candle is handcrafted with care using a vegan coconut apricot wax blend, high-quality phthalate-free fragrance oils, and poured into etched glass for a soft, ambient glow. I pour with intention because what you bring into your home should feel good, smell good, and carry meaning.

So take your time. Breathe it in.
Let’s find the scent that speaks to you.

What candle lovers say:

I just gifted one of your candles to my sister for hosting my family at her house for vacation, and she was as blown away by the quality and scent as I was. Thank you for putting your whole heart into making such wonderful candles.

From the luxury packaging, beautifully engraved jars and amazing scents…these candles are just different. These candles make me feel a sense of home I didn’t know I needed and a luxury experience we all deserve.

Ashton

I can't say enough awesome things about your candles. The quality, the packaging, it was amazing to be given these snapshots of your memories. The candle is delicious, and I LOVE the cut-out B on the black glass.

These are our favorite candles! You can tell that a lot of care has gone into creating them. I love the sparkle in the wax, the crackling wood wicks, and knowing there are no harmful ingredients.

Carolyn

These candles smell so good, they will make you a candle snob! I love them so much I have the entire line of scents and am eagerly awaiting new scents to drop. If I could leave 10 stars, I would!

Shanisha

These are the best quality candles I have ever experienced. I can tell that there was so much thought behind each fragrance as they are so unique but also so familiar in essence.
