About us

The Singhal Heritage House

A mother's memory, a son's craft, one house of scent.

We are a small, family-run candle studio in Atlanta, Georgia - a mother and son bringing the real scents of home to life, one hand-poured batch at a time.

Our Story

It started with a smell she couldn't buy.

Prerna grew up in a home that was never quiet with scent. Jasmine strung through her mother's hair. Sandalwood smoke curling from the prayer corner at dusk. The whole street turning sweet with mango in the summer heat. In India, scent was not decoration - it was memory, ritual, and welcome, all at once.

Years later, settled in Atlanta, she went looking for those smells in a candle - and kept coming home disappointed. The "sandalwood" was sharp and synthetic. The "lavender" smelled like floor cleaner. The "mango" was pure candy. Everything promised the feeling of home and delivered a chemical shortcut instead.

"None of them smelled like the real thing. So we decided to make the real thing ourselves."
Two Founders

A kitchen table, a mother and her son.

It began at home, the way the best things do. Prerna knew exactly what home was supposed to smell like - she had spent a lifetime breathing it in. Her son, Aryan, grew up between two worlds: her stories of India and the streets of Atlanta, with the patience to learn the craft and the drive to turn a feeling into a business.

Together they taught themselves to pour. They chose a cleaner, natural coconut-soy wax over cheap paraffin. They tested wicks until the burn was even, edge to edge. They tracked down real materials - the creamy heart of Mysore sandalwood, the soft floral of French lavender, the resinous warmth of a true amber. What started on a kitchen table became a small Atlanta studio, and a name to put on it.

The Memory
Prerna
Mother, founder, and the nose of the house. She grew up surrounded by India's scent traditions and carries the memory of exactly how each one should feel. If a scent doesn't take her somewhere, it doesn't ship.
The Craft
Aryan
Son, co-founder, and the maker of the house. He turned his mother's memories into a craft - the wax, the wicks, the pour, the burn - and built the studio that lets a family recipe reach a wider table.
What We Believe
Real materials. Real stories. No shortcuts.
Most candles are built to be cheap. We build ours to be true - because a scent that carries a memory has to be real to earn it. That belief shows up in every choice we make.
Real over synthetic
We build our scents around real character - creamy sandalwood, soft French lavender, resinous amber - not a single flat aroma chemical pretending to be the whole thing.
Cleaner by choice
Natural coconut-soy wax and cotton wicks, for a slower, cooler, low-soot burn that's comfortable in a closed room - never cheap paraffin.
Hand-poured, small batch
Every candle is poured and finished by hand in our Atlanta studio, in batches small enough to check each one - never run off a factory line.
Every scent has a story
From Mysore's royal sandalwood to the lavender fields of Provence, our scents are rooted in real places and real history - a heritage worth telling.
The Name

Why "The Singhal Heritage House."

Singhal
Our family name - because this is a family business, built by a mother and her son, and everything we make carries our name and our standard.
Heritage
The scent traditions we grew up with and the histories behind each fragrance - India's, and the world's - carried forward rather than faked.
House
A home of fragrance, and a home you come back to. The place these scents are meant to take you - somewhere warm, somewhere yours.
Rooted In Two Places

Made in Atlanta. Rooted in India.

We pour every candle here in Atlanta, Georgia - a hot-summer, real-life American home is exactly where our candles are meant to live, and where we test them to burn clean and even. But the heart of what we make comes from further away: the scent heritage Prerna carried across an ocean and now shares, one flame at a time.

That is the whole idea of the house - to let you light a candle on an ordinary evening and, for a moment, be somewhere that smells like home. Whichever home that is for you.

Thank you for letting a small family studio into your home. Every candle we pour is one we would light in our own.
