Hand-Poured Soy Candles, Made in Melbourne

Yarra Light is Julia's candle studio in Melbourne. She started it in 2025 and still pours, wicks, labels and packs every candle herself, in small batches. We use 100% natural soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oils made in Australia, and each candle's page lists the wick, fragrance load and vessel size.

WHAT SETS US APART

Most candle brands will tell you the wax is premium and the fragrance is beautiful. We would rather give you the numbers.

Every candle is hand-poured in Melbourne by Julia, in small batches, and every product page carries the same full spec: soy wax, 8% fragrance load, Australian phthalate-free fragrance oils, the wick type for that range, the vessel and its dimensions, over 210 grams, over 35 hours.

That is what sets us apart. Not a better story, a published spec.

Amazing!

As a gourmand scent fan, I was looking for some sweet - but not artificial/chemically - smelling candles, and these two are perfect!

The Hazelnut Latte has made my bedroom smell like freshly ground coffee mixed with a subtle chocolate, and I adore it so much.

The Cinnamon Cookies has been burning in my loungeroom, and the scent was delicious and decently powerful also.
