Southern Wild Co
Candles, hand washes and room mists inspired by the Australian bush.
About Southern Wild Co
Founded in regional New South Wales by designer Yukari Tippett, Southern Wild Co makes bush-inspired candles, washes and room mists, with nods to Australian literature and art. Each scent profile is developed with local perfumers using native Australian essential oils and botanical extracts, then poured and bottled in Australia using custom soy-and-coconut wax blends and gentle plant-derived cleansers.
For example, scents like 'Our Place' celebrate red earth, eucalyptus, and campfire smoke; 'Sirens' captures salty coastal banksia and sea spray; and 'Bush Magic' weaves lemon myrtle with Tasmanian lavender and sandalwood.
Southern Wild Co prints its labels on recycled cotton stock in regional New South Wales, donates a portion of revenue to Australian Bush Heritage conservation projects, and manufactures every candle, hand wash, and body lotion onshore with cruelty-free, vegan-friendly, and phthalate-free formulations. The glass candle vessels can also be kept and reused after the wax is finished. Check the care instructions before putting one to a new use.
