Why We're So Obsessed With Labels 

When you think about fantasy candles, your first thought might be the scent. But at Mythologie Candles, we believe the label is just as important as the fragrance itself.

That’s because every candle label is designed to be part of the immersive Mythologie experience—a visual portal to the fantasy world you’re about to step into.

Our labels are akin to scrolls, artwork, and relics.

We create them with the same care we give to our scent development, because the moment you see a Mythologie candle on your shelf, it should stir your imagination—whether it’s lit or not.

Each label is crafted with unique fantasy candle design elements that match the scent story: parchment textures, magical glyphs, fantasy-inspired fonts, and poetic descriptions that make your space feel like a page from a forgotten tale.

Whether you're writing a novel, watching your favorite fantasy series, or working from your home office, our decorative candle labels are made to be savored. They’re designed to be collectible candle art that invites you into another realm.

Fantasy home décor isn’t only about wall art and plush throws. Sometimes, it’s a flicker of light in the corner of your desk… a scent in the air… and a label that tells a story before you even strike a match.

Design Choices: Why We Add Text to Labels

You may notice that every Mythologie candle carries not only rich artwork but also a short, poetic blurb. That choice is intentional.

We could have left our labels as pure imagery, but we believe words can deepen the connection. The text gives the candle context, pulling you into its world and reminding you that fantasy can bring so much light to everyday life. 

Whenever you need inspiration, you can simply pick up the candle, read its description, and feel transported.

This blend of imagery and storytelling makes each candle a statement piece. Your Mythologie candle can make an otherwise boring room into a fantasy realm—place them on desks, mantels, and bookshelves (or just about anywhere).

And because we believe quality matters, we invest heavily in this process. We spend thousands of dollars every month on professional designers to create labels that rival collectible art prints.

Every choice—from placement of the text to the interplay of color and texture—is deliberate, designed to immerse you in story the moment you lay eyes on it.

Not Just a Label—A Legacy

We don’t do sterile scent labels or big-font names slapped on generic backgrounds.

Those labels might tell you the fragrance. Ours tell you a story.

While many candle companies focus on seasonal trends or minimal packaging, Mythologie Candles are designed to feel like artifacts from another world—labels worthy of a wizard’s apothecary or an Elven archive.

We want you to display your candle like a treasured item on your writing desk, your bookshelf, or your hearth.

So next time you light one of our candles, take a moment to read the label. Let it remind you that magic is never far—it can live right on your shelf, glowing softly in the corner of your room.

P.S. When people walk into your house, they’re going to tell you it smells amazing. Just a warning.
