MADE WITH PASSION IN CALIFORNIA
"Voluspa is true handcrafted Californian luxury. Exquisite fragrances, cool, colorful, reusable containers that we design in-house, and perfectly formulated candles are the backbone of our identity. Our ingredients are rare, sourced from around the world, and possess a fine fragrance quality. Each ingredient contributes to an exclusively unique scent that far surpasses that of typical department store candles. This is why we have such a cult and celebrity following for our fragrances. Voluspa has never sold a candle that we did not make ourselves. We have always been proud of that, and not many other brands can say the same."

The Story
Voluspa was founded nearly 20 years ago by artisans and entrepreneurs Traci and Troy Arntsen, who handcrafted everything with great love and dedication in their California kitchen. Born from burnt pots, homemade waxes, and intoxicating fragrance oils, Voluspa is now a reflection of the art, beauty, and culture that inspire its founders on their travels. Traci's cultivated passion for botany and essential oils, combined with her fragrance expertise, allows Voluspa to blend unique scents using the finest ingredients from the most remote regions of the world. Troy's passion for travel, his business acumen – and his knack for never missing the right opportunity – have made Voluspa one of the world's leading providers of luxurious scented candles and body care products today. The name Voluspa comes from an ancient Nordic poem about the creation of the world from chaos. And as the chaos in the kitchen showed, great beauty often arises from great passion.
THE INGREDIENTS
Voluspa's primary goal is the sustainable, environmentally friendly, and pesticide-free production of candles and body care products.
Each candle is hand-poured in Irvine, California, and is characterized by the patented, clean-burning coconut wax blend, 100% natural, hand-crafted wicks, and the fragrance compositions created by in-house perfumers.
Clean burning coconut wax blend
100% natural, hand-set wicks
Hand-poured in the USA
Vegan and cruelty-free
Free from phthalates, parabens & sulfates
Did you know...
...that the patented coconut wax blend burns up to 10 times cleaner than candles made from soy wax?
...and that the coconuts that Voluspa uses for its proprietary wax blend come from small farms in Indonesia and the Philippines?
Coconuts are resilient and grow in hot, coastal areas, often near the coast, because they can tolerate salty and sandy soils - they grow here naturally to protect the coastline from erosion.
This makes the coconut so unique, as other plants cannot grow under such conditions. Coconuts are harvested in bunches every 45-60 days.
