from interior stylist to candle creator
I’ve always believed that how a home feels matters just as much as how it looks.
Before Soja Fragrances, I worked as an interior stylist, helping clients create beautiful, functional spaces. But time and time again, I noticed the same thing homes could be styled perfectly and still feel flat. The missing piece was scent.
Candles that looked good rarely performed.
Some barely scented a room.
Others burned poorly or were filled with ingredients I wasn’t comfortable bringing into my own home.
So I started making my own.
Why Soja Exists
Soja Fragrances was created out of frustration and a refusal to settle. I wanted fragrance that actually worked.
Clean-burning candles.
Room sprays that lasted.
Scents that filled a space and shifted the mood, without gimmicks or marketing fluff.
Everything we make is designed to be lived with, not just lit once and forgotten.
What Makes Soja Different
We hand-pour our candles in Melbourne using a coconut and soy wax blend, chosen for its clean burn and strong fragrance throw.
Our fragrances are created using premium, perfume-grade oils blended to perform consistently and smell incredible throughout your home, not just near the flame.
Many of our candles are infused with crystals. You don’t need to be “into crystals” to enjoy them, but many customers tell us they feel a difference when a Soja candle is burning. Whether you see that as energy, atmosphere, or simply a sense of calm, we’re happy to let the experience speak for itself.
No paraffin.
No fillers.
No unnecessary noise.
Just well-made fragrance, done properly.

Designed for Real Homes
Soja products are made for real life.
For busy kitchens.
Quiet evenings.
Homes that are lived in, loved, and sometimes a little chaotic.
Our candles are designed to scent large spaces, even when they’re not lit.
Our room sprays are made to linger, not disappear.
Our collections are edited carefully, we don’t release things just for the sake of it.
If it doesn’t serve the home or the feeling we want to create, it doesn’t make it into the range..

Our Philosophy
We believe fragrance should feel personal.
It should make you pause.
Help you reset.
Or simply make your home feel more like you.
Soja Fragrances isn’t about trends or mass production. It’s about intention, quality, and creating something you genuinely look forward to using.
