About Five Thirty PM Candle Co

Welcome to Five Thirty PM Candle Co

Clean Candles for Scent-sitive Souls

Hi, I’m Ivy, Founder of Five Thirty PM Candle Co and lifelong scent lover with a sensitive nose. Like so many others, I love the cozy feeling of lighting a candle after a long day, but I got tired of candles that were too strong, gave me headaches, or were made with mystery ingredients I couldn’t pronounce.

So I decided to create something different: candles and wax melts that are gentle, clean, and actually enjoyable even for those of us who are sensitive to strong scents.

What Makes Us Different

At Five Thirty PM Candle Co, we believe a candle should help you relax, not overwhelm you.
That’s why we keep things simple and safe:

  • Natural soy wax blend for clean, even burns
  • Plant-based wax in our wax melts, no paraffin here
  • No phthalates. No parabens. No toxins ever
  • IFRA-certified fragrance oils only
  • Light, calming scents that won’t knock you out

Whether you're lighting up a quiet night in or setting the mood for a slow weekend morning, our scents are designed to enhance, not overpower, your space.

Why “Five Thirty PM”?

Because that’s the time of day when everything starts to slow down when you’re finally off the clock, settling into your rhythm, and ready to just be. It’s the little in-between moment where the glow feels like yours.

That’s the kind of feeling we want to bottle up and share one soft, clean, beautifully-scented candle at a time.

We’re also proud members of the Handcrafted Soap & Cosmetic Guild (HSCG), committed to safe, small-batch craftsmanship that meets high-quality standards.

Thanks for stopping by.
We’re so glad you’re here, and we can’t wait to help you find your glow.
