Our story

More than just a fragrance

What started as a love for beautiful aromas and cosy spaces grew into a passion for crafting candles that bring calm, warmth and personality to every home.

Every Benka candle is poured by hand in small batches using soy wax. Petals are set one layer at a time, colours are mixed to order, and each piece is packed with care before it leaves us.

Candle care

The first-burn ritual

Full care guide
1

Trim to ¼ inch

Trim the wick before every light for a clean, even flame.

2

First burn, 3–4 hours

Let the top melt edge to edge so the candle never tunnels.

3

2–3 hours at a time

After that, burn in shorter sessions, away from fans and drafts.

4

Stop at ½ inch

Extinguish gently once half an inch of wax remains.
