Some collect rare art. Some hoard high-end handbags. We craft candles.

Consider us your highly opinionated, impossibly well-traveled, slightly hedonistic candle concierge. We curate scents the way others curate art: with taste, intention, and just the right amount of irreverence.

Our candles cater to the well-read, the well-dressed, and those who never say no to a martini before noon. At Alternative Scents, we know that the best stories happen after dark, the most salacious conversations start with “You’ll never believe this,” and the most luxurious homes always smell exquisite.
