Behind The Name

As spring begins to bloom, we look forward to warmer days, time spent outdoors and the return of the dragonflies. Every summer, they gather in our backyard—beautiful, colorful and delicate. Often regarded as symbols of hope, good fortune and prosperity, their presence has always felt meaningful to our family.

The dragonflies sometimes land on those visiting our home and linger for a moment, bringing an unexpected smile and a feeling of quiet connection with nature. By the end of summer, we have come to recognize some of our frequent visitors, noticing how their once-perfect wings have become gently tattered by the wind.

Dragonflies are also associated with transformation, joy and living fully in the present moment. These sentiments beautifully reflect what we hope to bring into the home through Dragonfly Fragrances: warmth, beauty, positivity and a sense of everyday joy.

When our family decided to create a candle company, we wanted its name to hold personal meaning. Dragonfly Fragrances came naturally. It was inspired by a cherished part of our home and by the feelings of hope, happiness and possibility these remarkable creatures bring each year.

Whenever we light a candle, we think of the dragonflies and smile. We hope that welcoming a Dragonfly Fragrances candle or diffuser into your home brings you that same feeling of beauty, hope and joy.

Our candles and diffusers are handmade in Dallas, Texas, and can be found in gift boutiques, spas and hotels throughout the country.
