P.F. Candle Co.

P.F. Candle Co. is a California-based fragrance and candle company founded in 2008 by married couple Kristen Pumphrey 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 sustainable company producing iconic scented candles, diffusers, and room sprays in Los Angeles.

After Kristen lost her job during the 2008 recession, she left New York and moved to Austin, Texas. There, she met Tom, and before long she opened an Etsy shop in the second bedroom of her home, selling products such as scented candles, bookends, buttons, and much 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 at home while adding the finishing touch to any room. The fragrances are balanced to enhance and beautify a room without overwhelming it. Fragrance blends such as Teakwood & Tobacco, Los Angeles, and Golden Coast have since achieved cult status among many fans.

The entire P.F. Candle Co. scented candle collection is vegan, cruelty-free, and phthalate-free. All scented candles are made from 100% domestically 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 remained the same. As we grow, so does our commitment to sustainability, our planet, and our employees who make it all possible.” Kristen Pumphrey, Founder
