For months, we’ve been working quietly behind the scenes on something new.
Something that would complement what we’ve been making for years while capturing the same feeling that inspires everything we do atMaine Island Soap.
Today, we’re excited to finally share it with you.
Introducing theMaine Island Soap Signature Candle Collection. 🕯️🌊
Hand-poured in small batches right here in Maine, our new candles were created to bring the scents and feeling of the Maine coast into your home.
Maine has a way of staying with you.
The scent of evergreen trees. The crispness of the coastal air. Wild blueberries growing along the roadside. Herbs growing in the garden. The warmth of a quiet evening at home.
These are the kinds of things that inspired ourSignature Candle Collection.
We wanted to create fragrances that feel familiar, natural and distinctly Maine.
And just like ourhandmade Maine soaps, we wanted every candle to be something we would be proud to have in our own home.
Our Signature Candle Collection currently features five unique fragrances, each with its own personality.
A fresh and inviting combination inspired by one of Maine’s most iconic flavors.
Sweet blueberry notes are balanced with the herbal character of thyme for a fragrance that feels both fresh and comforting.
Inspired by Maine’s evergreen forests and rugged landscapes.
Bright citrus peel brings a burst of freshness while crisp pine creates a warm, woodsy balance. It’s invigorating, familiar and reminiscent of a refreshing walk through the woods.
A calming combination of floral lavender and fresh, aromatic rosemary.
This is a wonderful choice when you want your home to feel peaceful and relaxed.
Earthy, warm and woodsy.
Sage and cedarwood come together to create a sophisticated fragrance with the feeling of being surrounded by Maine’s forests.
Warm, rich and grounding.
Patchouli and sandalwood create a deeper fragrance that is perfect for relaxing evenings and cozy spaces.
Just like our soap, our candles are made with care.
Each candle ishand-poured in small batches using a natural coconut-soy wax blend and quality fragrance.
Our 6-ounce candles are poured into classic glass Ball Mason jars with metal lids, giving them a simple, timeless look that fits naturally into almost any home.
Each candle provides approximately35–40 hours of burn time when cared for properly.
We love the fact that something as simple as lighting a candle can completely change the feeling of a room.
Maine Island Soap has been making Maine-inspired products for decades.
While oursoaps.* will always be at the heart of what we do, we’ve always loved finding new ways to capture the feeling of Maine in the products we create.
Our candles felt like a natural next step.
A bar of soap can be part of your daily routine.
A candle can become part of your evening.
Together, they make wonderful gifts, especially for anyone who loves Maine and the coast.
Our Signature Candles make an easy gift for birthdays, holidays, housewarmings, hostess gifts or simply for someone who deserves a little something special.
And because they are made right here in Maine, they also make a wonderful Maine-inspired gift for friends and family who live far away.
Sometimes the best gifts aren't complicated.
They're the ones that remind someone of a place they love.
This is just the beginning of our candle collection.
We're already thinking about new fragrances and seasonal scents that will allow us to capture even more of what makes Maine special throughout the year.
For now, we're excited to see which of these five scents becomes your favorite.
Blueberry + Thyme.
Citrus + Pine.
Lavender + Rosemary.
Sage + Cedarwood.
Patchouli + Sandalwood.
