Loam Candle

Loam Candles is a small batch, handmade candle company based in Los Angeles, California. We craft scents that celebrate and honor the magic of a life lived outdoors.

After spending some time working as an urban farmer in LA, Loam founder, Jessica White, wanted to create scents that captured her everyday experiences in various gardens across the city. With the goal of creating scents that make people feel as good indoors as they do outside, Loam Candles was born.

All Loam Candles are made with a blend of soy and coconut wax. We strive to provide a long lasting burn that is safe for all humans and pets.

We use a blend of essential oils and fine fragrances to create our garden and outdoor inspired scents. All fragrances are cruelty free and follow IFRA standards.

From building boxes to pouring candles, we do a lot manually! All candles are made in small batches by hand to ensure quality is consistent across the entire candle making process.

Loam candles are always paraben, paraffin, petroleum, and phthalate-free.

Size: 7.4oz/210g

Burn time: 40-50 hours

At Loam, we’re passionate about all things gardening and food related. We donate 5% of our profits to organizations that are working to advance food security and access, increase plant knowledge, and protect our environment.

HARVEST BASKET

Scent Vibe: leathery, earthy, deep, musky

For when the long days of summer come to an end and plant production begins to wind down. Warm, musky, and earthy, Harvest Basket is the scent to celebrate the growing season’s gifts. Both green and grounding, this candle is the perfect scent for lovers of fall who gravitate towards comforting, non-floral fragrances.

Scent Notes: hay, tobacco, vetiver, patchouli

CITRUS SEASON

Scent Vibe: floral, subtly sweet, warm, bright, uplifting

Warmed under an early spring sun, delicate neroli blossoms dot the plumes of waxy green citrus leaves, radiating the subtle and luscious scent of honey and life at its peak. Mirroring the neroli blossom, the Citrus Season scent weaves a delicate balance of floral nectar with hints of bright citrus zest in honor of this fragile and elegant flower.

Scent Notes: neroli, sandalwood, kumquat, yuzu blossoms

HERB BED

Scent Vibe: herbal, smoky, meditative, fresh, calming, warm

Bundles of shrubby branches. Fragrant and sticky hands. A kitchen filled with the freshness of the earth. Herb Bed brings home the magical woody and herbaceous scent of homegrown, newly harvested herbs. Airy lavender, hazy tobacco, and dry and herbal sage come together to form a relaxing and contemplative scent.

Scent Notes: lavender, grey sage, tobacco, leather, bay leaf

MIDNIGHT MOON

Scent Vibe: sultry, floral, warm, sweet-spicy

For all-nighters, long phone calls with someone you love, a book so good you lose sleep reading it. Aromatic cardamom and clove, musky patchouli and oud, and hints of rose make Midnight Moon a scent built for illuminating the long hours of the night.

Scent Notes: rose petals, oud, cardamom, clove, black tea, patchouli

COMMUNITY GARDEN

Scent Vibe: green, fresh, bright, zesty

Freshly pruned tomato leaves, fig nectar warmed by the July sun, interplanted marigolds, a job well done. Vegetal greens and zingy fruits capture the animated and harmonious hum of a California community garden in full bloom.

Scent Notes: tomato leaf, green fig, marigold, mandarin

FULL BLOOM

Scent Vibe: floral, warm, enchanting

Sunny days, windows open with a warm breeze, a fresh bouquet beginning to release a symphony of blooming freshness. Alluring ylang ylang mix with lily of the valley for notes of punchy florals, while dewy leaves and wood create a harmonious balance of green and grounding notes.

Scent Notes: lily of the valley, ylang ylang, wood, dewy leaves

SCENIC ROUTE

Scent Vibe: uplifting, spicy, fresh, earthy

Wide open spaces, winding roads, towering trees, full lungs, grasses swaying in the wind. Lush cedar and vetiver, spicy gingergrass, and hints of citrusy bergamot combine to create both a grounding and invigorating blissfully ozonic scent.

Scent Notes: cedarwood, vetiver, gingergrass, bergamot
