Our Ingredient Philosophy

 Sea Love's products are safe for you - and the environment

At Sea Love, we are intentional about the materials we choose and the products we create.

Our products are thoughtfully crafted to deliver a high-quality, beautifully balanced fragrance experience, with a focus on responsible formulation, transparency, and recognized industry standards.

Our candles and fragrance products are thoughtfully made with:

  • 100% U.S.-grown soy wax
  • 100% cotton core, lead-free wicks
  • Phthalate-free fragrance oils
  • No added dyes
  • No paraffin wax

We are committed to minimizing unnecessary additives while creating beautiful, high-performing fragrance products you can feel good about bringing into your home, body, and life.


Our Fragrance Standards

Our fragrance oils are professionally formulated blends of fragrance ingredients, primarily synthetic by design, and may also include naturally derived components and essential oils.

We intentionally use high-quality fragrance materials because they allow for:

  • Greater consistency and stability from batch to batch
  • More complex, beautifully layered fragrance profiles
  • Access to scent notes that may be difficult or unsustainable to obtain naturally
  • More consistent fragrance performance across our products
  • An elevated fragrance experience at an accessible luxury price point

Our fragrance materials are selected and used in accordance with applicable IFRA guidelines, which are informed by the scientific research and safety assessments of the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials (RIFM).

We do not position our fragrances as organic, all-natural, or 100% naturally derived. Instead, we focus on thoughtful formulation, transparency, quality, and responsible fragrance use—all part of The Sea Love Standard.


Our Wax

We use 100% U.S.-grown soy wax, a plant-based, renewable resource derived from soybean oil.

The soybean oil is refined and hydrogenated to transform it into a smooth, solid wax ideal for candle making. We carefully select our wax for its quality, consistency, fragrance performance, and beautiful burn characteristics.

Soy wax is biodegradable and, when properly wicked and cared for, offers a slow, even burn with minimal visible soot. It also has a relatively low melting point, which can contribute to a longer-lasting candle and a beautiful fragrance experience.

It’s one of the many thoughtful choices behind The Sea Love Standard for quality, performance, and fragrance.


Our Scent Philosophy

Our products are designed to elevate—not overpower—your everyday environment.

We formulate our fragrances for balance rather than intensity, creating a scent experience that feels refined, intentional, and beautifully layered. For the best fragrance experience, we recommend choosing products appropriate for the size and use of your space.

Every Sea Love creation is thoughtfully crafted to meet The Sea Love Standard for quality, performance, and fragrance, while following recognized industry guidelines and standards. The result is fragrance designed to enhance your space beautifully—never overwhelm it.


Soy Allergies

Highly refined soy wax generally contains little to no detectable soy protein, which is the component of soy associated with most allergic reactions. Because Sea Love soy wax is used in candles rather than consumed, reactions are generally considered unlikely.

However, individual allergies and sensitivities can vary. If you have a known soy allergy or specific health concerns, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use.

Nut Allergies

Our fragrance oils are complex blends of fragrance ingredients and are not intended to be represented as allergen-free. If you have a known nut allergy or sensitivity and are unsure about a particular fragrance - such as Pistachio - we recommend avoiding that fragrance and choosing another option.

For specific ingredient or allergy concerns, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use.
