This Editor-Favorite Candle Company Is Celebrating Phenomenal Women (Including Oprah!) With a Massive Sitewide Sale
Women’s History Month is upon us, and we’re noticing a handful of our favorite companies launching sales that pay tribute to female greatness. Personally, I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the women in my life this March than by sending them a “just because” gift that makes them feel special and supports a female-founded brand. I’m a huge candle nerd, so it tracks that one of the gift options on my radar this month comes from The 125 Collection.
Based in Harlem, New York, the female- and Black-owned business has cornered the market on quote candles that are as cheeky and inspiring as they are chic. For founder Valerie Wray, the idea for the company was born from her need for moments of encouragement around her home, telling AT, “I love candles and fragrances and wanted to create a sense of peace in the home that was encouraging and uplifting.” The collection boasts unique messages that are inspiring, uplifting, humorous, and — at times — downright sassy. Each 12-ounce candle comes in a sleek black jar, and every style is available in your choice of fragrance (love that!). Right now, the options range from the invigorating Spicy Blood Orange to more calming picks like Tobacco Flower & Vanilla.
In honor of Women’s History Month, The 125 Collection is offering a discount sitewide through March 31, allowing you to snag their best-selling styles (including candles that pay tribute to phenomenal women like Maya Angelou and Oprah) for 15 percent off. Simply load up your cart with goodies, and enter code TheFutureIsFemale (duh!) at checkout to score your discount. To get you started, below we curated our favorite finds for celebrating the strong women in your life.
