November 1st is Scented Candle Day and what better way to celebrate than to shop with Black women-owned candle brands. Here are 10 brands selling candles that will permeate your space and set the vibes that you need!
1. The Whitney Collection
if you are looking for scents that can transport you across the seas from your very own home, go with The Whitney Collection.
The brand was born during COVID by LA native Whitney Brooks, who commonly used traveling as a means to escape reality. But when traveling became restricted because of the pandemic, Brooks had to use methods like daydreaming and visualization meditation to take her where she wanted to go. So she created a candle line inspired by the scents from areas she’s traveled to. Her candles are $39 each and feature scents like, “Rose Pepper,” “Desert Gypsy,” “Montauk Linen,” and more.
