When Motor City Candleworks began in 2004, we started by naming each fragrance for a part of Detroit history. Inside each box we also included a short story about it's namesake. We called that a Detroit Scents of History™.
We now make those fragrances in jars, votives and cute little D-Light™ candles. In all, we've got 31 named candles. Each one of them is made with premium wax and high quality fragrance oils.
All of our fragrances are listed at the right. Click on any one to read the history that comes with it.
