Not your average company.
Our story
Petrichor+Flame was built with the word “natural” in mind.
On a trip through the Pacific Northwest, we couldn’t help but notice all the unique smells of nature around us. We couldn’t get the thought of capturing the scents in candles out of our minds. Throughout the trip, we brainstormed on how to do this while staying true to our value of using non-toxic, natural products. This is where tallow came in. We had been using homemade tallow as skincare for some time, loving the benefits in our skin we had already seen. From a simple idea born on an adventure, we went on to learn how to create a multitude of tallow-based skincare products using the most natural and non-toxic ingredients. From candles and wax melts, to whipped tallow balm and soap, our passion for bringing healthy, nourishing products to everyone we come across has flourished.
The name itself embodies the nature-inspired characteristic of all our products.
Petrichor: the pleasant, earthy smell of rain on dry earth.
Ingredients picked with care
Not only did we want nature inspired products, we wanted the materials we used to be as natural as possible. We already carried values around non-toxic, natural materials in most every aspect of our own personal lives, so it would only make sense that our company held these same values.
All of our products are created using 100% grass-fed and finished beef tallow from a local rancher whom we have come to know personally. This ingredient was one of the first when it came to candles and body care products! We primarily use essential oils to scent our products, but any fragrances used are all SLS-, SLES-, paraben- and phthalate-free to make sure you and your family are safe from harmful chemicals.
We hope to create products that you can trust and love, knowing they are safe for you and your family!
“Even those of us who like natural products want to smell good too!”
