How it Works

We wanted to create a space where people could slow down, play with fragrance, and craft something with their own hands—whether it’s a one-of-a-kind candle or a core memory. From first dates to solo resets, it’s all about the experience.

1. Choose your favorite scents from the scent wall.

2. Work with a candle tender to craft your perfect blend.

3. Candle? Ready in 2 hours. Shop Fawne while you wait! Diffuser? Ready right away.

4. Enjoy your one-of-a-kind creation.

Candle Making Experience Pricing

Small Candle - 8 oz glass jar with a gift box - $48
