OUR STORY
PHILOSOPHY
l.a. ROUGE was born on a walk through Amy’s garden, herbs fragrant, air thick with possibility. We wanted to capture that feeling, the way scent lingers in the air and pour it into a candle that finally deserves a seat at the dinner table.
We are dear friends, who have spent our lives creating experiences, designing brands, homes and dinners that stretch long into the night. We love how scent holds memory and believe in the power of small things done beautifully.
This is our love letter to it all.
Each l.a. ROUGE candle is hand-poured in Los Angeles using non-toxic ingredients and essential oils. Designed to be enjoyed alongside the meal, mix and match our scented candles to complement your menu and create your own scent recipe.
Our signature red wick disappears once lit, leaving nothing but scent, light through the crystal and a little bit of magic.
l.a. ROUGE isn’t just a candle. It’s an invitation, to gather, to linger and to forget what time it is.
Welcome to l.a. ROUGE.
