Enter NEOM — the luxe, wellness-focused candle brand that promises to elevate not just your interiors, but your mood, sleep, and sense of calm too. With their chic, minimalist glass jars and all-natural essential oil blends, NEOM candles have become a go-to for those who want their homes to smell as good as they look.
In this post, we’re exploring the delightful world of NEOM’s most popular candles, reviewing their unique scents, sizes, and the perfect occasions to light them.
Who Are NEOM Wellbeing?
In the world of home fragrance and wellness, few brands capture the essence of natural luxury quite like NEOM Wellbeing (previously known as NEOM Organics). Founded by Nicola Elliott in 2005, NEOM emerged from a desire to create products that not only smell divine but also genuinely support well-being. Elliott, a former journalist for Glamour magazine, experienced firsthand the toll that a high-pressure career could take on mental health. This personal journey through stress and burnout led her to retrain in aromatherapy and nutrition, ultimately inspiring the creation of NEOM Organics.
NEOM’s founding principles are rooted in the belief that small, daily rituals can significantly enhance overall well-being. The brand is dedicated to crafting natural fragrance products that promote better sleep, reduce stress, boost energy, and lift moods—all using pure essential oils, 100% natural fragrances and ethically sourced ingredients. Their commitment to holistic health is evident in their extensive product range, which includes not only their signature candles but also diffusers, essential oils, bath and body products, and even skincare.
Every NEOM product is meticulously designed to serve a specific purpose within their Wellbeing Range, which is divided into categories: Scent to Sleep, Scent to De-Stress, Scent to Boost Your Energy, and Scent to Make You Happy. This thoughtful approach ensures that whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day, invigorate your senses, or create a calming atmosphere, there’s a NEOM product tailored to meet your needs.
