About Us

Petrichor Candles was born from a feeling โ€” the smell of rain on warm earth. For me, that scent carries memories of childhood in Sri Lanka, watching monsoon rains fall from my grandmotherโ€™s verandah. Itโ€™s the scent of home, of comfort, of being present in a moment that feels timeless.

I created Petrichor to capture that emotion โ€” to craft candles that donโ€™t just smell beautiful, but take you back to your own favourite memories. Each candle is hand-poured with intention, inspired by nature, nostalgia, and the quiet magic of everyday life.

Because sometimes, all it takes is a familiar scent to feel like youโ€™ve come home.
