My earliest memories come with a soundtrack: a song on the radio, the bass in a car ride, singing in the choir in my home church back in St Louis. Music has always been more than sound to me.

It’s memory, connection, and energy in motion.

I founded TAP Candle Co. because I wanted to capture that magic. I didn’t build this from pain or as an escape. I built it from a deep, unshakable love of music, storytelling, and scent.

Every TAP Candle product is born from a song. We map the emotion, structure, and vibe of a track into fragrance notes. The opening notes, the bridge and the outro; so you can smell the songs you listen to.

You light, you scan, you press play. It’s not only about the scent your space will take on, it’s about reliving memories, discovering and rediscovering artists, and connecting with moments that move you.

Quality is a non-negotiable. TAP Candles' uses clean-burning, vegan waxes or all natural witch hazel and thoughtfully sourced fragrance blends because I believe luxury should also support our health and planet.

Also: for every candle sold and playlist listened to; we support the music by giving streaming credit to artists so the voices that inspire us are part of the story.

TAP Candles exists for the moments when a song hits so hard you can feel it in your chest. The ones that remind you of who you were, who you loved, and who you're becoming.

Each TAP product is crafted to match the mood it sets; whether you're chilling, vibing, getting ready for company, or spiraling just a little.

TAP Candle Co. isn’t another home fragrance brand, we are a movement.

A movement for those who feel music deep in their bones.

For the ones who know exactly what song goes with getting ready, cleaning the house, crying in the car, or setting the mood. For the people who want their home to feel lit, layered, emotional, and unforgettable.
