Phthalate-Free Candles for Headaches, Allergies & Clean Air

Phthalate-Free Candles for Headaches, Allergies & Clean Air

Phthalate-Free Candles: The Clean Fragrance Choice for Headache & Allergy Relief

If you've ever lit a candle and felt a headache coming on—or noticed your allergies acting up—it might not be the wax or the flame. It’s likely the fragrance oils. At boho candle, we create luxury phthalate-free candles that are beautifully scented, consciously crafted, and gentle on your health.

What Are Phthalates and Why Should You Avoid Them in Candles?

Phthalates are synthetic chemicals often used to stabilize and prolong fragrance in products like perfumes, air fresheners, and conventional candles. While they may help scents last longer, phthalates have been linked to:

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Respiratory irritation and asthma

  • Hormonal disruption

  • Skin allergies and sensitivities

Inhaling these chemicals—especially in small indoor spaces—can trigger uncomfortable symptoms, especially for those sensitive to strong scents or struggling with allergies.

Clean Candle Fragrance = Better Air Quality + Fewer Headaches

boho candle is proud to offer a clean candle fragrance collection using only phthalate-free, non-toxic oils. Our fragrances are thoughtfully developed to avoid:

  • Carcinogens

  • Reproductive toxins

  • Irritants and allergens

  • Parabens and synthetic dyes

Whether you're looking for candles for allergies or want a safer scent experience in your home, boho candle offers peace of mind in every burn.

The Best Candles for Sensitive Noses and Clean Living

Our customers frequently tell us they’ve tried other brands, only to experience headaches from scented candles or flare-ups of asthma and allergy symptoms. That’s why boho candle is different.
