Origin Story

At my core, I believe that fragrance has the power to transport you—to evoke memories, emotions, and sensations tied to places and moments we hold dear. My journey began with a passion for recreating scents that capture the essence of my most cherished experiences, from traveling the world to checking in and out of boutique hotel lobbies.

After experiencing the unique fragrances each destination had to offer, I became inspired to bring that level of sophistication into your home. But I didn't want just any scent—I wanted something you wouldn’t typically find elsewhere. I was determined to create a collection of unique, sophisticated scents that elevate any space with their refined quality.

Having wasted money on plenty of candles that either didn’t burn well or lacked the fragrance throw I was hoping for, I made it my mission to ensure my candles would be different. Burn quality and fragrance strength became my top priorities. I spent months sourcing the highest-quality ingredients, experimenting with a wide range of fragrance oils, and testing various wicks to perfect a clean, long-lasting burn.

Every candle at Meraki Scent Studio is hand-poured with care and precision. I pour my heart and soul into every detail, from the scent to the packaging, so that each candle not only smells incredible but also looks beautiful in any space. Whether you’re lighting one to unwind after a long day or setting the mood for a special occasion, my candles are designed to elevate every moment.

Thank you for supporting my small business and trusting me to fill your home with scents that bring both joy and comfort. I look forward to sharing these extraordinary fragrances with you.
