OUR FOUNDER STORY

An Heir to Aromatics
Aytrus began not from a business plan, but from a personal connection to the world of scent. Our founder grew up in a family deeply rooted in the wholesale trade of rare and precious aromatics specifically agarwood, sandalwood, ambergris. It naturally built a lifelong fascination with the emotional power of fragrance. But while tradition was the foundation, the vision for Aytrus was something different: To craft a range of bespoke, quality fragrance products for everyday luxury. Knowing the value and rarity of these raw materials, the founder chose to begin with clean fragrance oils to make quiet luxury accessible. But with such niche experience and access to rare materials, Aytrus has grand plans: To eventually craft natural and sustainable bespoke fragrance products.

frequently asked questions

When is the best time to use Aytrus’s Serum Candle?

We highly recommend to light the serum candle before a shower/bath, allowing you to envelope yourself in its scent first. Once out of the shower, extinguish the flame. When slightly cooled,  pour the serum onto your palms and spread all over your body. The warmth from the shower opens your pores, allowing maximum moisture absorption and scent retention. Slather on if time-strapped or gently massage onto your skin for quality self-care. 

Are Aytrus serum candles safe to use on skin?

Yes. Our serum candles are specially formulated for skin contact. They contain nourishing waxes, organic and cosmetic-grade plant butters and oils, combined with clean, cosmetic-grade fragrance oils that comply with international safety regulations (specifically IFRA- International Fragrance Association). This makes the melted serum safe, soothing, and luxurious for topical use.

How do I properly use and care for my serum candle?

For best results, light your candle for about 20-30 minutes or until a sufficient pool of melted wax forms. Extinguish the flame, then carefully dip your fingers or use a spatula to apply the warm serum onto your skin. Avoid burning the candle for extended periods without use to preserve fragrance and wax quality.

Why is the surface of my candle uneven or has oil droplets?

Our serum candles are crafted with high concentrations of natural butters and botanical oils, designed to melt into a luxurious, skin-loving massage serum. Because we do not use synthetic stabilizers or hardening agents, it is normal to see minor surface unevenness or the appearance of oil droplets, particularly in warmer environments or after the first few burns.

These characteristics are a natural result of our formula's richness and purity. To ensure an even melt and optimal performance, we recommend gently swirling the melted candle pool by slowly rotating the vessel on a flat, stable surface. This subtle motion helps redistribute the nourishing oils evenly without disturbing the wick or affecting the burn.

Are your plant butters and oils organic?

We use a careful selection of organic and cosmetic-grade plant butters and oils, including kokum butter, mango butter, jojoba oil, grapeseed oil, apricot kernel oil, and babassu oil. This ensures high quality skin nourishment, and a clean, natural feel in every candle.
