Welcome

A Warm Welcome 🖤

Step into the world of Noir Candle Collection—where scent, style, and soul come together. Thoughtfully crafted for those who appreciate mood, meaning, and modern minimalism.

Meet the Maker

Hi, I’m Mia—the founder and creative mind behind Noir Candle Collection. I launched this business in January 2022 during a tough but pivotal chapter in my life. After 4.5 years as a mortgage loan officer, giving my all to a job that eventually let me go, I told myself: “I never want to feel this powerless again.”

So, I bet on myself. I took everything I’d learned from corporate life and from the entrepreneurs I’d worked alongside—especially my mom, who’s been running her own business since the days of bag phones and beepers—and started building something of my own.

Why Candles?

During the pandemic, my partner and I were always burning candles—but we never gave much thought to what was actually in them. Once I started doing the research, I was hooked. I ordered a candle-making kit, watched hours of YouTube tutorials, and began hand-pouring candles in my kitchen, three or four at a time.

I gave them to family and friends—and they loved them. That was the spark. ✨

Our Mission

I wanted to create candles that are:

• Eco-conscious and kind to the earth
• Luxe and minimal in both scent and design
• Packaged beautifully enough to feel like a self-care ritual or the perfect gift

Think clean, modern scents, sustainable materials, and packaging worthy of an unboxing video.

Lighting the Way

In 2023, I quit my job and went all in. My first pop-up was A&T’s Homecoming—and I completely sold out. That was my sign to keep going.

Since then, I’ve been hitting the market circuit hard. You can find Noir Candle Collection at:

• The Black Farmers Market
• Cary Night Market
• Durham Central Park with The Makrs Society

The Journey Continues

My story is still being written—but I’m so glad you’re here.
Stick around—we’ve got light to spread and candles to pour.
