Crafted candles for
A graduated perfumer with a vision to reshape Dubai's fragrance and candle-making landscape. What started as a passion for scent evolved into a mission — from hand-pouring luxury candles with my wife in 2019 to establishing Dubai's first and largest candle-making supply hub.
Today, my work bridges artisanal craft and technology. Beyond creating and supplying certified candle making materials with full COA — the only certified wax supplier in the GCC — along with fine fragrance oils and premium wicks, I build intelligence platforms that empower fragrance professionals worldwide.
