THE STORY OF OLIA CANDLES

Some places stay with us long after we've left them. The warmth of the afternoon sun, the scent of the sea carried by the breeze, or the feeling of wandering through unfamiliar streets. Sometimes, all it takes is a familiar fragrance to bring those memories back.

Discover the fragrances

From our hand-poured, vegan soy wax candles to our wax melts, diffusers and home fragrances, our collection is designed to bring beautiful scents and meaningful moments into your everyday routine.

We love simplicity, timeless design and products that feel just as special as the memories that inspire them.

Whether it's creating a peaceful moment after a long day, setting the mood for an evening at home or bringing back memories of somewhere you love, we want every OLIA fragrance to become part of your own story.

If one of our fragrances can take you back to a special moment... even just for a second... then we've created exactly what we set out to do...

It all started with a love for travel.

We're a couple who have always shared a love for exploring new places, discovering different cultures and collecting memories along the way. Travelling has always been something special to us.

The excitement of somewhere new.

The little moments you don't plan for.

The memories that stay with you long after you've returned home.

But when the world went into lockdown, everything changed. Like so many others, we suddenly found ourselves spending our days at home, unable to travel or explore the places we loved. 

One day, we came across an article about how closely our sense of smell is connected to memory. How a single familiar scent can instantly take you back to a particular place, a moment, or a feeling you thought you'd forgotten.

And that got us thinking...

What if we could travel through fragrance?
