Clare’ Mont Candles London began with one scent: gardenia. It was the fragrance that welcomed me home after school, always drifting gently from my mother’s beloved garden — a garden filled with blooms, but none more captivating than the lush, blousy Gardenia. That fragrance became my earliest memory of how scent can hold emotion, how it can carry you home.
Clare’ Mont Candles was born from that memory, but it has grown into something larger — a way of honouring story, heritage, and ritual. My roots in the Caribbean remind me that fragrance has always been more than beauty; it is connection. In the West Indies and Africa, scents mark life’s passages, heal spirits, and carry joy through community. Each candle I create is designed not only to fill a room with aroma, but to anchor a moment, an intention, a piece of history.
Our collections reflect this vision: Heritage pays tribute to my own West Indian ancestry, Legend invites you into universal folklore and storytelling, and Goddess channels the timeless power of divine archetypes. Every lit candle is more than light — it's a daily act of presence and care.
Each Clare’ Mont candle is still hand-poured in London in small batches, using premium vegan soy wax and cruelty-free fragrance oils. This personal, hands-on approach means no two candles are quite alike. By avoiding mass production, we honour sustainability and ensure that every piece feels like it was made for you.
These candles are not only a source of fragrance, but a bridge: between memory and moment, between self and heritage, between the everyday and the sacred. From my mother’s garden to your ritual, they are a little piece of my heart, and a reminder that light is meant to be shared.

How The Business Evolved
Driven by a deep appreciation for how scent can transform a space and evoke cherished memories, Coral (the heart and hands behind what would become Clare` Mont Candles London) began to dream of sharing this joy through handcrafted candles.
With a vision and a determined spirit, Clare` Mont Candles London officially began its journey. What started as a personal passion was now taking its first steps as a business.
The initial months were a dedicated exploration into the art and science of candle making. Countless hours were spent meticulously testing various waxes, wicks and fragrance oils. The journey was filled with its share of challenges, but the unwavering pursuit of the perfect combination fuelled the process.
After persistent experimentation, the ideal harmony of wax, wick and fragrance oil finally began to emerge. Each successful blend was a moment of pure joy, bringing Coral's vision of evocative scents to life.
With the foundational elements perfected, Clare` Mont Candles London is now poised to share its handcrafted candles. The aim is simple: to bring the joy of beautiful fragrance and the wonderful memories it evokes into the homes and lives of customers. Because, as Coral believes, experiencing the magic of scent is a truly wonderful experience for everyone.
As Clare` Mont Candles London continues to grow, the core passion remains the same: to craft high-quality candles that not only smell beautiful but also spark joy and connection through the power of fragrance.
