Why WixScents Candles
are Different
Hand-Poured Soy Candles Made in Kaitaia,
New Zealand
I believe a candle should do more than simply smell nice.
It should create a feeling, spark a memory, and help you slow down and enjoy life's small moments.
Every WixScents candle is hand-poured in small batches in Kaitaia, Far North, NZ, using carefully selected ingredients and thoughtful craftsmanship. From family-inspired fragrance collections to sustainable packaging choices, everything we do is guided by quality, simplicity, and intention.
A Cleaner Burn
WixScents uses ingredients that help create a cleaner-burning candle for your home.
WixScents Candles are made using:
-
100% soy wax
-
Phthalate-free fragrance oils
-
Lead-free cotton wicks
This combination helps deliver a beautiful fragrance experience while supporting the clean-burning qualities that soy wax is known for.
Hand-Poured in Small Batches
Unlike mass-produced candles, every WixScents candle is hand-poured in small batches.
Small-batch production allows us to focus on quality, consistency, and attention to detail from the moment the wax is poured to the moment your candle is packed and shipped.
We believe handmade products carry a personal touch that simply cannot be replicated on a factory production line.

WixScents proudly creates candles in Kaitaia, at the top of New Zealand's North Island.

Fragrances Inspired by Real-life Memories
Many candles are designed around fragrance trends.
WixScents collections are not just nice smells; they are inspired by real-life experiences, family traditions, and meaningful moments.
Our The Sunday Kitchen Collection was created to capture the comforting aromas of family gatherings, home cooking, laughter, and the warmth of a busy kitchen on a Sunday afternoon.
The goal is not just to scent a room, but to recreate the feeling of being home.
Every collection begins with a story and is designed to help create an atmosphere that feels familiar, comforting, and welcoming.
Thoughtful Packaging that has
Less Environmental Impact
We believe luxury and sustainability can work together.
WixScents uses recyclable and compostable packaging materials wherever practical and offers candle refill options to help reduce waste. These choices allow customers to enjoy their favourite fragrances while making lower-waste purchasing decisions.
We Believe Candle Care Matters
Creating a great candle is only part of the experience.
We also help customers get the best performance from every candle through practical candle care advice, including:
-
Allowing the first burn to reach a full melt pool
-
Trimming wicks to approximately 5mm before each burn
-
Avoiding excessive burn times
-
Storing candles correctly
A little candle care can help your candle burn more evenly and last longer.
