About Belora Handcrafts

What is Belora Handcrafts?

Belora Handcrafts is a candle brand created around mood-led home fragrance. The candles are organised by the feeling you want to create in your space, fresh, calm, floral, cozy, grounding, or gift-ready.

Are Belora candles hand-poured?

Yes. Belora candles are hand-poured, and created to bring scent, mood, and atmosphere into your home.

What makes Belora different?

Belora helps customers choose candles by mood, not only by fragrance notes. Each collection is designed around a different scent experience, making it easier to find the right candle for your home or gift.

Is Belora suitable for gifting?

Yes. Many Belora candles are suitable for thoughtful gifting, especially floral, oud, warm, and elegant scent profiles. Occasion-specific packaging is available for selected occasions through our Occasions page. Available occasions and packaging options are shown on that page.

Choosing Your Scent

How do I choose the right candle?

Start with how you want your space to feel. Choose Clean Slate for freshness, Heritage & Grounding for deeper evening scents, Botanical Escape for florals and gifting, or Gourmand Indulgence for warm and cozy moments.

Which collection is best for a fresh home feeling?

Which collection is best for relaxation?

Heritage & Grounding is ideal for calm evenings and deeper home moments. It includes oud, woods, amber, sandalwood, cedar, lavender, pine, and earthy notes.

Which collection is best for floral scents?

Botanical Escape is best for customers who enjoy soft, elegant, romantic, and gift-friendly floral scents. It includes rose, jasmine, violet, lilac, freesia, saffron, sandalwood, and warm floral notes. For a warmer floral, see Spiced Rose; for violet and lilac, see Royale.

Product Information

Can I see the scent notes before buying?

Yes. Each product page includes scent notes so you can understand the fragrance direction before placing your order.

Will each product page explain what the candle is best for?

Yes. Each product page includes the scent notes, scent feel, best use, where to use it, and why you may like that candle.

Why does each candle have an ingredient or scent image?

The ingredient-style image helps customers understand the scent direction visually, especially because candles cannot be smelled online before purchase.

Can I ask for help before choosing a candle?

Yes. If you are not sure which candle to choose, you can contact Belora on WhatsApp and share the mood or scent style you prefer.

Candle Care & Use

How should I use my candle for the first burn?

For the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly across the top surface before extinguishing the candle. This helps support a more even candle experience.

Should I trim the wick?

Yes. Trim the wick before each burn once the candle has cooled. This helps keep the flame steady and supports a better burn.

Can I leave a candle burning unattended?

No. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Always place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface and keep it away from flammable items, children, and pets.

When should I stop using the candle?

Stop using the candle when only a small amount of wax remains at the bottom. Burning too close to the base may cause the container to overheat.

See the full Candle Care guide.

How quickly will Belora respond after I place an order?
