Brand Story
Brand Story
The Collective Fragrance House was born from a simple realization: many of the candles we loved were filled with ingredients we didn’t. Once we began researching what was actually inside them, we knew there had to be a better way; cleaner, safer, but still luxurious.
That was the beginning for us. What started as curiosity grew into a commitment to create elevated home fragrance without compromise. Every candle, soap, diffuser, and spray is hand-poured in small batches with non-toxic ingredients chosen for quality and performance. The result is fragrance that transforms your space with refined luxury, made with care for the homes we live in and the moments we never want to forget.
For us, it’s about more than products. This is our heart. Every fragrance we create is made to be clean, safe, and beautiful before it ever reaches your home. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to and the reason we pour so much of ourselves into every scent.
Meet the Founders
Justin
After graduating from the University of North Texas (go Mean Green) with a degree in Criminal Science, Justin spent nearly two decades in homebuilding and materials supply. From operations to purchasing, he’s seen every side of the industry—but what he’s best known for is his love of research. That curiosity is what fuels The Collective today.
Sarah
A lifelong lover of beauty and culture, Sarah has spent the last 20 years channeling creativity into everything she does. From earning her cosmetology license in Texas and Florida to running her own boutique, she’s built a foundation in design, connection, and community. Along the way she honed her eye for merchandising and marketing, skills that now shape the look, feel, and storytelling of The Collective.
Together, Justin and Sarah balance detail with creativity, research with artistry—and at the heart of it all, a shared vision for clean, intentional living.
