More about The Stinky Cat Candle Co.

  • We offer, what we believe, are truly the most premium quality and most fragrant candles you will find. We also know it’s hard to find candles that fit every room and situation, and so we’ve introduced variations to better fit whatever type of candle you might be looking for. Find out more under the ‘Fragrance Load’ section below!

    Please let us know if you love our candles as much as we do!

  • All of our candles come with an optional fragrance load. We know that not all candle burning situations are the same. Whether you’re burning in a smaller bathroom or a large living room, or if you simply prefer more or less fragrance. It should be all about you anyway, right?

    Fragrance Loads:

    - Regular: Your standard fragrance load. This level is perfect for those that love a wonderful but not overpowering candle experience. Great for smaller-sized rooms or bathrooms.

    - Full: Stepping up into the big leagues. This level is perfect for those that want a room defining scent. Great in medium-sized rooms like bedrooms and dining rooms.

    - Heavy: Now you’re just showing off. This fragrance level is for those that want to be hit with a scent wall when you enter a room. This level is likely not going to be great in smaller rooms. You’ve been warned! Perfect for medium to larger rooms like living rooms or open floor plans.

  • We use a premium soy wax blend to achieve a clean, eco-friendly, quality burning candle, while maintaining the most fragrance possible to fill your home with. This was important, and we’ve spent a lot of time on this part of the process. We think we’ve struck a perfect balance. Try them for yourselves and let us know!

  • Candles can be a lot more finicky than most may realize. Here are some tips for a quality burning experience:

    • Always trim your wicks to 1/4” before each burn. This will help ensure proper flame size, wax melt pool, and prevent the candle from tunneling

    • Avoid burning in drafty areas, if possible. This can disrupt the combustion process and cause unburned particles to release in your smoke

    • Always allow your candle to reach a full melt pool (100% of the surface is melted) before extinguishing. This will also help prevent tunneling

    • Do not burn a candle for more than four (4) consecutive hours

    • Discontinue use of your candle when there is 1/2” of wax remaining. Burning past this point may damage the glass

  • We do! All of our candles are handmade right here in Maine. From the labels, to the wax pour, to the delivery at your front door. And we promise that will be the last of any corny rhymes. Hopefully.

    This all started as a passion project turned business idea (find out more about our story on our About Us page). You can feel good knowing that your purchase is truly supporting a small, local business.

  • We are fast-growing and constantly introducing new and exciting products. Make sure to check our shop frequently for new candle and fragrance options added all the time, including new The Stinky Cat non-candle items coming in the future!
