What goes into Grand Candles home fragrance, format by format, and the claims we can support with documentation from our suppliers.
Grand Candles candles are made with 100% soy wax. The fragrance oils used in our candles, reed diffusers and room and linen sprays are phthalate-free, vegan and cruelty-free. Our reed diffuser base is non-toxic, DPG-free, VOC-compliant and biodegradable, and our room and linen spray base is plant-based and biodegradable. If we can't document a claim for a format, we don't make it.

Made with 100% soy wax — pure soy wax with no additives — and phthalate-free, vegan, cruelty-free fragrance oils.
Use and care: trim the wick to 1/4 inch before every lighting, let the wax melt fully across the top on the first burn, burn for no more than 4 hours at a time and always use a heat-safe surface away from drafts, children, pets and anything flammable.
Our diffuser base is non-toxic, DPG-free, VOC-compliant in all 50 states and 100% biodegradable, paired with phthalate-free, vegan, cruelty-free fragrance oil and natural rattan reeds.
Use and care: flip the reeds to refresh the scent, and keep diffusers away from children, pets, finished surfaces, fabrics, direct sunlight and heat sources.
Our spray base is plant-based (over 50% plant-derived) and 100% biodegradable, with phthalate-free, vegan, cruelty-free fragrance oil.
Use and care: spritz to enhance a room or freshen linens; the aroma lasts several hours and lingers longest on fabric.
Wax melts are warmed in a wax warmer instead of burned with a flame. We haven't documented the wax and fragrance details for this format yet, so we don't make ingredient claims for wax melts.
Use and care: place a cube in your warmer, let it melt fully and let the wax cool and solidify before removing or replacing it.
A compact, flame-free diffuser for your car vent. We don't make base or fragrance-oil claims for car diffusers until supplier documentation is on file.
Use and care: remove the wooden lid and white stopper, attach the metal clip, replace the lid, insert the reed sticks and clip the diffuser onto a vent.
Each refill includes a 4 oz amber bottle of pre-mixed, ready-to-use reed diffuser oil, 10 fresh rattan reeds and a black top, made to work with the glass bottle you already have.
Every ingredient claim on this page traces back to documentation from the supplier of that material, and each claim is matched to the format it covers. The soy wax details apply to candles, and the diffuser base details apply to reed diffusers.
