Backhouse Fragrances is a luxury gifting brand based in Newport Beach. Our candles are hand-poured in small batches and have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Real Simple, Daily Pilot, Orange Coast, and The Scout Guide. Our custom corporate gifting program is trusted by teams at J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, AEG, and Deloitte.
Featured in The Wall Street Journal's Buyside Gift Guide of best gifts under $100. Publicist Allison Olmstead named our Grove orange blossom candle her go-to client gift, calling it “a fun and thoughtful way to share a bit of my hometown with clients who live across the country.”
Reviewed in Real Simple Magazine's home decor section. The editor called our Jack pumpkin candle “the perfect balance of being strong enough to make my entire home smell good but subtle enough to be enjoyable for hours” — and noted it lasts twice as long as a typical candle.
ROOM TO GROW
Featured in the Daily Pilot, where reporter Matt Szabo traced our move from a converted garage in Newport Heights to a 3,500-square-foot warehouse in Costa Mesa, more than ten times the size of where it all began. The story also explores the places behind our candle names and what comes next, from diffusers to new gift sets.
