All new scents coming Feb 1, 2026

Our Story

"It’s said that scents evoke feelings of happy memories, comfort, and magic in your space."

In 2020, I took my love of wax melts and candles, my background in science, and some newly-found free time to create a melt that is highly scented, long-lasting, and fills the room.
After months of testing every combination of waxes and fragrances I could get my hands on, a perfect combination was born, and I am so happy to share this new line of wax melts with you.
With my family at home and available to help, I soon discovered that everyone has a different palette of scents that they love. This is where ‘Behind the Door’ was coined; Behind every door in my house was another person showing off their own unique tastes.
All melts are hand-poured and made in small batches for quality assurance. They are made with high-quality fragrance oils, cosmetic-grade pigments and glitter, and a custom blend of paraffin and soy waxes. Most importantly, each melt is made with pure happiness, and I hope that it will spread throughout your homes as it does mine.
Thank you for visiting Behind the Door!
