Our Story

Inspired by Maxime

Max Candle is a local family business founded after the unexpected death of a loved one. Our family used the art of making candles as a form of healing, support, and strategies for sharing that experience with the world. Located in the Morgan Park community, we produce high-quality and eco-friendly scented candles, as well as aromatherapy products used to be tools for relaxation, healing, uplighting, and support. The business was inspired by the healing journal of Maxime Sylvain, and his ability to empower individuals to bring positivity into the world.
