Fossil Fuels in Your Fall Candle? Yup. Here’s the Truth.

When you think of a fall candle, you probably imagine cozy sweaters, crisp air, and maybe a slice of pumpkin pie on the counter.

What you don’t imagine? Gasoline.

But here’s the truth about most conventional candles and fragrances...they’re made with petrochemicals.

Yep, the same stuff as plastic and gasoline.

What Conventional Candles Are Really Made Of

Most big fragrance brands rely on petrochemicals because they’re cheap, easy to use, and everywhere.

That “pumpkin spice” candle on the store shelf? Chances are, it was made with the same base chemicals that fuel your car.

And while it may smell festive, the reality isn’t so cozy.

Why It Matters for Your Home

When you burn a petrochemical-based candle indoors, you’re not just filling your home with “fall vibes.”

You’re also releasing pollutants that can harm your air quality and your health.

So the warm glow and pumpkin spice scent? They come with an invisible cost.

Why We Chose the Harder Path

At Grow, we decided to do things differently.

Our candles, sprays, and car fresheners are made with 100% plant-based ingredients.

No fossil fuels.

No petrochemicals.

No shortcuts.

It costs us more, sure. But some things are worth doing right.

What You Get Instead

By making fragrance from plants, not petroleum, you get:

• Cleaner air inside your home

• Scents that are safe for kids and pets

• Fragrance that feels good in every way...not just when you light it

Because your home shouldn’t smell like oil.

It should smell like fall. 🍂

The Bottom Line

Most fall candles cut corners with fossil fuels.

We won’t.

Every Grow fragrance is made to be safe, non-toxic, and better for the planet...so you can enjoy fall scents the way they’re meant to be.
