At Essentially Cozy Co., we’re all about crafting products that feel as good as they smell — and that starts with what goes into them. While soy wax has long been a popular alternative to paraffin (and rightfully so), we’ve chosen to take it a step further with our custom blend of coconut and olive wax.
This natural wax blend offers a cleaner, slower burn, allowing you to enjoy your candle longer and with less soot. It also provides a creamy, smooth finish that looks beautiful and holds fragrance exceptionally well, giving your space a consistent, true-to-scent throw from first light to final flicker.
Compared to soy, coconut olive wax:
- Burns cleaner and longer
- Holds and throws fragrance better
- Has a more luxurious texture and finish
- Is less likely to frost or crack over time
However, like all natural waxes, it comes with a few trade-offs. Coconut olive wax is softer and more heat-sensitive, meaning it requires a little extra care in warmer climates. But we believe the elevated performance and cozy experience are well worth it.
Soy wax is still a great, natural option — and far better than paraffin wax, which is petroleum-based and can release toxins when burned. But for us, coconut olive wax better reflects the heart of our brand: clean, comforting, and consciously crafted.
