About Handmade Candles & Home Fragrance
Why I Make Candles
For me, candles are way more than decor. They remind me of those cozy nights when nani (grandma) would light mombattiyan and suddenly, sab kuch magical lagta tha (everything felt magical). That's the feeling I want you to experience too - warmth, nostalgia, and a hint of joy, right in your space.
What You’ll Get
- Every candle is handmade by me, no machines - just a lot of late night hustle and care.
- I use natural soy wax candles for a clean burn, and all my scents are alcohol-free so they're gentle on your home.
- Fragrances are phthalate-free and safe for anyone, even if you have kids or pets around.
My Range
- Jar Candles: Amber Jars for that simple vibe, Crystal Sparkle for some luxe feels.
- Handmade decorative candles: Think Motichoor Ladoo shapes (for festivals), floral peony candles, or even modern diyas.
- Scented wax melts: Just pop them in a warmer, perfect for days when you want the fragrance without lighting a flame.
- Wardrobe fresheners: Wax tablets for your clothes, because why not?
Scents & Custom Stuff
- I’ve got floral, gourmand, and musky collections - rose, lavender, vanilla, coffee, ocean notes, and more.
- Custom candle gifts: Personalized labels, gift hampers, event favors, bulk orders - I’m happy to make it special for you.
If you like candles with a story, I think you’ll find something here that feels just right.

My Story
Hey, Heena here. Candles have been my jam since forever, thanks to nani lighting up mombatti (candles) when the lights went out. That warm, cozy vibe stuck with me. So, UMA is all about bringing that feeling back – the flicker, the stories, the magic. It’s been a wild ride, loads of late nights, some wins, some flops. But every time someone picks a candle, feels like sharing a piece of my heart. Real talk, it’s not just business for me, it’s nostalgia.
My Work
Handcrafted Scented Goodies - I make personalized scented soy candles, custom wax melts, wardrobe and car fresheners, plus nostalgic candle hampers.
Artisanal Touch - Each product is handpoured by me, using premium soy wax and nature-inspired scents for that cozy, elegant feel.
Personalization & Festive Gifts - You want a special scent, colour, label, or a festive hamper? Just ask, I love making things personal for any occasion.
More Than Just Scents - It’s about creating experiences – a peaceful glow, a thoughtful gift, or a fragrance that sparks memories.
