The problem

Most candles aren't made for candle people.

They burn fast, get tossed, and leave behind more waste than warmth. Worse, many are made with hidden toxins, petroleum byproducts, and feel-good claims that don’t hold up.

The Solution

We reimagined candles the Swedish way—with clean wax, safe nature-inspired scents and no-waste design.

- No paraffin. No harsh chemicals. No junk.
- No single-use jars—just waste-free refills.
- Swedish scents made by top perfumers.
- Refillable & customizable—make it yours.

Upgrade to Swedish candles

But first, the fragrance...

We know it's everything. Fragrance is more than scent—it’s atmosphere, a mood, a moment. Our scents are created in Sweden, rooted in the nature and coziness woven into everyday life here, at home. Then perfected by perfumers at the world’s top fragrance houses—the very same behind the most luxurious brands.

and about the Forever Vessel.

These aren’t just candle vessels—they’re objects of ritual. A reflection of living simply, slowly, and with intention. Designed in Sweden and handcrafted in Portugal from 95% recycled clay, each piece is made to be used and enjoyed for years to come.

HOW IT WORKS

If you can make coffee, you can make a candle.

WHY IT MATTERS

The candle industry has some dirty, not so little, secrets.

Let us spill the tea.

  • Luxury or not, most candles have a dark side.

    Paraffin wax = hidden toxins—a petroleum byproduct that releases benzene, toluene, and ultrafine particles—linked to cancer, asthma, and indoor air pollution. Found in most candles, even luxury ones.


    “Soy blend” doesn’t mean clean—many brands add just enough soy to market it as “clean”—but it’s still mostly paraffin.


    Cheap fragrance oils cause headaches—most mass-market candles contain phthalates, petroleum-based musks, and solvents that linger well after the flame is out.

  • The waste adds up.

    35 million candle jars are thrown away every year—only 8% are actually recycled. The rest pile up in landfill.

    Paraffin is petroleum waste—it's not biodegradable. Meaning it breaks down slowly and releases harmful chemicals long after that half-burned candle is tossed.

    Why it matters—these throwaway candles sit in overflowing landfills, leaching toxins into soil and water for thousands of years—all for something that lasts you just a few weeks.

THE SWEDISH WAY

The Siblings way

We do things differently.

When you light a candle, you’re not just filling a room with scent—you’re creating a moment. A shift. A small ritual that brings comfort, calm, or clarity. That’s why we don’t cut corners.

Each waste-free refill is crafted with non-GMO U.S. grown soy and sustainably sourced coconut wax—clean-burning, paraffin-free, and better for your air. We work with two of the world’s top fragrance houses to create serene, elevated scents made of premium ingredients—always free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates and other harsh chemicals.

They’re poured in a family-run U.S. factory, packaged in 100% compostable bags, and shipped plastic-free. The chef's kiss: we’ve offset our carbon emissions in full since 2019, our founding year.

These Swedish candles are for slowing down, feeling at home, and breathing a little easier.

Because you—and the people you share them with—deserve that.

Meet the siblings behind Siblings

We started Siblings to help tackle throwaway culture and make sustainability feel simple and beautiful. Living in Sweden has taught us that less really is more—that design should be intentional, nature respected, and rituals cherished. Real change doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it can start at home, with the things we do every day.

Our candles are made to support those small rituals of care—for your home, your people, and the planet. We hope you enjoy.

With love & light,
Eva & David, Founders
