FAQ

Our candles are phthalate-, paraben-, soy- and sulfate-free, vegan and we do not test on animals. Our wax is a proprietary coconut blend made of sustainably farmed coconuts and apricots, and not only burns up to 90% cleaner than its 100% soy wax counterpart, but it also maintains the integrity and maximum volume of our incredible fragrances. It also lasts 40% longer than paraffin candles.

So many things! We're phthalate-free, carcinogen-free, mutagen-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free, and phosphate-free to name a few reasons. We're also vegan, and pet-safe and family-friendly!

Candles (& other fragranced products) have long been a staple in homes, not just for their warm light but for their ability to fill a room with delightful fragrances.

At AEMBR, we understand the importance of ensuring that this sensory experience is not only luxurious but also safe and sustainable. That's why our candles are crafted using a blend of essential oils and clean synthetic compounds. Learn more about what's in our fragrances >>

Phthalates (pronounced THAL-ates) are chemicals commonly used in scented products to enhance fragrance throw and prolong scent longevity. Parabens, on the other hand, are preservatives added to home scents to prolong their shelf life. Unfortunately, both phthalates and parabens have become prevalent in the market, raising concerns about their impact on our health. Read more >>
