What kind of wax do you use?
We craft our candles with a luxury coconut–apricot wax blend, refined in the USA. This wax is made from rich coconut and apricot oils, creating an exceptionally smooth, creamy finish and an indulgently clean burn. Its premium formulation delivers a sophisticated scent throw and a warm, elegant glow — the signature experience behind every SALTY SURROUND candle.
What are your fragrances made of?
Our fragrances are crafted using luxury, high‑grade fragrance oils, selected for their depth, clarity, and elevated performance. Each blend is meticulously formulated without parabens, phthalates, or other harmful additives, giving you a cleaner, safer scent experience throughout your space.
How long do your candles burn?
Our 9 oz candles are crafted for a long, refined burn of approximately 55–60 hours when enjoyed with proper candle care. Each candle is thoroughly tested to ensure consistent performance and an even, elegant burn. Actual burn time may vary slightly depending on your environment — factors like drafts, humidity, and room temperature can naturally influence how the candle behaves.
Are your products safe for pets?
Our products are thoughtfully formulated to be pet‑friendly when used as directed. We craft our candles, wax melts, and room + linen sprays with clean, premium ingredients, but it’s still important to enjoy them responsibly. Always follow our care guidelines and keep fragranced items out of reach of curious pets.
Every animal is different, and some may be more sensitive to fragrance than others — especially smaller breeds or pets with existing respiratory concerns. Factors like proximity, ventilation, and your pet’s individual sensitivities can influence how they react to any scented product.
If you ever have concerns about how fragrance may affect your pet, your veterinarian can offer personalized guidance. Your home’s comfort — and your pet’s well‑being — matter deeply to us.
How strong are your scents?
Our candles are crafted for a soft, elevated scent presence — atmospheric, refined, and never overwhelming. Each fragrance is designed to diffuse smoothly and settle into your space with quiet sophistication.
A single 9 oz candle beautifully scents small to medium rooms.
For larger, open areas, burning multiple candles creates a balanced, even fragrance throughout the space.
Our wax melts offer a clean, effortless way to scent your home:
Use one melt for small rooms and two melts for larger spaces to achieve a smooth, consistent fragrance.
Our Room + Linen Sprays deliver an instant, refined refresh wherever you need it.
With thoughtful placement, every SALTY SURROUND scent moves through your home with understated elegance.
Can I customize candles with my preferred scent, label, or design?
We offer custom candles designed to reflect your style — perfect for weddings, birthdays, corporate events, or meaningful personalized gifts. Choose your preferred scent, and we’ll create a clean, modern label that feels polished and intentional.
For simple customizations, add your favorite scented candle to your cart and select the custom label option for $2. We’ll connect with you afterward to finalize your label details and design preferences.
