Our Story

Organica Candle Company was founded by best friends Megan Wise and Suzy Irmen, who began new chapters in their lives and decided to create something meaningful together. Their shared love of natural beauty, simple elegance, and the way fragrance and candlelight transforms a space inspired the birth of Organica.

Every candle is hand-poured using sustainable materials and non-toxic ingredients, reflecting their belief that the things that fill a home should be as good for you as they are beautiful.

Each design reflects the rustic+elegance feel they both love — vintage, with a touch of contemporary charm, warm light, and uniquely blended fragrance that creates peace and beauty in the home.

For Suzy and Megan, candle-making is more than a craft — it’s a way to bring warmth, elegance, and natural beauty into everyday life.

Our Philosophy

Intentional materials, thoughtfully chosen


Organica speaks to what is natural—of the earth, thoughtfully made, and created to bring warmth and grounded elegance to everyday spaces.

Our candles are designed for people who value beauty, wellness, and responsible living. Every material we use is intentionally chosen to balance clean burning, human safety, environmental impact, and long-term sustainability.

We believe in thoughtful sourcing. Each component of our candles is carefully selected for its quality, safety, and longevity—from our natural waxes and clean fragrances to the vessels that house them. While we prioritize working with domestic and small-batch suppliers whenever possible, we also partner globally to meet our standards of craftsmanship and consistency. By sourcing intentionally, we’re able to focus our investment where it matters most: clean ingredients, safe materials, and vessels designed to be reused, repurposed, and enjoyed well beyond their first life.

Natural, Clean-Burning Wax

We use a 100% natural coconut–soy wax blend, free from paraffin and petroleum-derived ingredients. This wax is:

  • Renewable and biodegradable
  • Vegan and cruelty-free
  • Clean-burning with minimal soot
  • Designed for excellent scent throw without additives

Our coconut–soy blend is vegetable based, allowing us to offer a cleaner, more responsible alternative without compromise.

Thoughtfully Screened Fragrance

Our fragrances are created using non-toxic fragrance materials that meet rigorous safety standards. These materials are manufactured without:

  • Organ toxins
  • Acute toxins
  • CMRs (carcinogens, mutagens, or reproductive toxins)
  • Phthalates
  • Ingredients listed on California Prop 65

This careful screening allows us to craft complex, elevated scent profiles while prioritizing the health of the spaces they’re enjoyed in.

Why Not Essential Oils Alone?

Essential oils are natural, but “natural” does not always mean non-toxic or sustainable. Some essential oils can pose risks to humans and pets when heated, and many require enormous quantities of plant material and energy to produce—raising concerns about overharvesting and environmental strain.

Clean, Metal-Free Wicks

Our wicks are made from 100% natural spun cotton, with paper threads woven in for structure and stability—never metal. They are also paraffin-free, ensuring a cleaner, more consistent burn without unnecessary additives.

Our Promise

At Organica, we take a balanced approach—one that considers safety, sustainability, and performance together.

Every Organica candle is made with intention—so you can light it with confidence.

We are always learning, always refining, and always striving to do better.
