P.F. Candle Co.

P.F. Candle Co. is a California-based fragrance and candle maker founded in 2008 by Kristen Pumphrey and now run jointly by her and Thomas Neuberger. For P.F. Candle Co., fragrance is an extension of our home design. The company creates high-quality home fragrances at affordable prices. What began as a one-woman operation is now a company producing iconic scented candles, diffusers, and room sprays in Los Angeles.

After losing her job in the 2008 recession, Kristen left New York and moved to Austin, Texas. There, she met Tom, and soon opened an Etsy shop in the second bedroom of her home, selling products such as scented candles, bookends, buttons, and more. She named her brand after her DIY blog: Pommes Frites. After (too) many questions about this whole Pommes Frites thing, Pommes Frites Candle Co. became P.F. Candle Co. To make things simpler.

Inspired by memories and designed to complete your living space. P.F. Candle Co. scented candles are designed to make you feel good while adding the finishing touch to any room. The scents are balanced to enhance and beautify a room without overwhelming it. Fragrance blends like Teakwood & Tobacco, Los Angeles, and Golden Coast have become cult favorites among many fans.

The entire P.F. Candle collection is vegan, cruelty-free, and phthalate-free. All scented candles are made with 100% US-grown soy wax, cotton wicks, and a blend of fine fragrance oils. “While our production methods have improved over the years, the passionate people behind all P.F.Candle Co. products have stayed the same. As we grow, so does our commitment to sustainability, our planet, and the employees who make it all possible.” Kristen Pumphrey, Founder
