The Lore

Hello - I'm Emily, the hands and mind behind Whisper In Wax, based in Tauranga, New Zealand and if I ever refer to 'us', I mean me, myself and I! 

I've been making candles and all things scented since 2019, and have had a small business since 2020, Whisper In Wax is a re brand of sorts and is really just my way of projecting my own interests and hobbies on other like-minded people.

I believe scent can hold memories and trigger emotion, it can be associated with anything really, and I try my best to match scents to the media and pop culture I get my inspiration from.

A typical day for working on Whisper In Wax will find me blaring metal music (disturbing the peace of my neighborhood) while finding calm in the task of pouring candles and melts, I really do find it has always helped as a stress/anxiety outlet for me and it's probably the part I enjoy the most. Plus my home smells amazing at all times which is an added bonus.
