Our story

A small collection, chosen by Zoe.

Zoe's Candles is Zoe's own shop. She chooses every fragrance, pours every candle by hand in the Netherlands, and keeps the collection small enough to know each scent well.

How it started

Zoe has always loved candles, but she was never quite happy with the ones she could buy. So she started making her own, trying one wax blend after another until she settled on coconut and rapeseed. Friends were her first customers. They asked for another candle, then for another scent, and Zoe's Candles grew from there.

The scents

Zoe looks for fragrances with a story you can smell: walnut and coffee, fig and cedar, tobacco and honey, mango and coconut milk. Each one has its own season, and you can browse them that way.

The candles

A blend of coconut and rapeseed wax in a 30cl glass jar with a wooden lid and a cotton wick, made to burn for around 50 hours.

Beyond the candle

The same scents also come as wax melts, poured from the same coconut and rapeseed wax, and as reed and car diffusers.

“Every scent in the collection is one I chose because I love it, and every candle is poured by my own hands, a few at a time. I hope one of them becomes part of your evenings.”
