The Aroma Quartz Story - Our Story

Aroma Quartz began during one of the most uncertain times of my life. After losing what I thought was my dream job as cabin crew, I found myself searching for a new sense of purpose. Out of that space, I started hand-pouring candles from my little house share in Manchester. What began as a small creative outlet quickly grew into something more meaningful — a way to bring calm, beauty, and intention into everyday life.

When I eventually returned to flying, I carried on making candles alongside my airline work. Then, during a period of unpaid leave, everything shifted. With more time and focus, I poured my energy into Aroma Quartz, and the business began to grow. Orders went from my kitchen table to my parents’ garage, and soon after, I found my first space in Shrewsbury Market Hall. From a tiny barrow to a single unit, and then to a double, Aroma Quartz slowly found its home and community.

In August 2025, after several wonderful years of retail, I made the decision to close our store. Instead, I chose to take Aroma Quartz back to its roots: focusing on our online community, pop-up events, and creative workshops. This shift allows me to follow the very advice I share through our products — to live more slowly, intentionally, and mindfully.

Today, Aroma Quartz is about more than just candles. It’s about rituals — little everyday moments that bring calm, connection, and clarity. From our coconut wax candles to our botanical wax melts, crystals, and ritual kits, every piece is created to help you carve out time for yourself and embrace a more holistic way of living.

Thank you for being here and supporting this journey. Whether you’ve been with us since the beginning or have just discovered Aroma Quartz, I’m so grateful to share this space with you. The best is still to come.
