welcome to mala! we’re so glad you’re here.

at mala, we believe scent is powerful — it can transport you back to your favorite moments and your coziest memories. that’s why every candle we create is inspired by nostalgia, carefully crafted to evoke your most cherished memories - and to create new ones.

We use only clean, high-quality ingredients: a natural coconut soy wax blend for a slow, clean burn, phthalate- and paraben-free fragrance oils that are safe for you and your space, and lead-free cotton wicks. with earth friendly packaging and the planting of one tree for every candle, they're designed to be better for you and the environment.

mala started as a passion project — hand-pouring candles in my spare time after my 9-5. In late 2019, I was unexpectedly let go from my job because of this very side hustle. It felt like the end, but it turned out to be the beginning. I took a leap, and went all in.

A few months later, I hired my mum as my first employee and candle maker. Since then, our tiny team has grown slowly and intentionally, all thanks to your support. Every candle we pour goes from our hands to your home with so much care.

five years in, our mission hasn’t changed: to create meaningful, memory-evoking scents — while keeping things small-batch, sustainable, and personal. When you choose mala over mass-produced candles, you're supporting a small business that truly values craftsmanship, quality, and community.

Thank you for being here. Your support means the world to us.
