Nature remains.
We reimagine its story.

Every day, fruit peels, flowers and plant material are thrown away, even though some of it still holds useful natural compounds, colour and texture. AUREVÉ began with one question: what if waste were not the end of a material's story, but the beginning of something beautiful?

We did not want sustainability to feel like a compromise. AUREVÉ is built so that care for the environment and beautiful design can exist together. We begin with candles and gifting, and grow into skin, hair, fragrance and festival essentials.

  • Home fragrances
  • Candles
  • Wellness rituals
  • Thoughtful living

Traces today. Beauty tomorrow.

The AUREVÉ range

AUREVÉ begins with candles and gifting, and grows into skin, hair, fragrance and festival essentials. Every product starts with the same idea: botanicals the world overlooked, understood and shaped with care.

    From overlooked to reborn

    We are building a sourcing network with local fruit and juice vendors, florists, households and community collection partners. Our focus is on orange, sweet lime, lemon and pomegranate peels, rose petals, marigold and seasonal botanicals that would otherwise go to waste.

    1. Rescue and selection

      Suitable discarded peels and petals are collected, inspected, sorted and cleaned of anything unsuitable.

    2. Botanical preparation

      Selected botanicals are dried and processed under controlled conditions.

    3. Formulation

      Prepared botanicals are brought together with carefully chosen ingredients. Candles are cured and tested for burn performance.

    4. Reborn as AUREVÉ

      Each product is finished in understated packaging with minimal plastic.

    Tradition knew it.
    Science explains it.

    Peel, petals and cedar have scented homes for generations. As researchers, we are drawn to what lies behind that: the compounds that give each botanical its character.

    Those compounds guide how we design every fragrance.

    What tradition knewWhat we can now read
    Orange peel brightens a room.
    Limonene is the principal aroma molecule in citrus peel.
    Rose petals soften the air.
    Citronellol, geraniol and 2-phenylethanol give rose its character.
    Cedarwood lends warmth and depth.
    Cedrol is a signature compound of cedarwood.
    Freshly cut leaves smell green.
    Green-leaf volatiles are released when plant tissue is damaged.

    “As a researcher, I have always been fascinated by the potential hidden within natural materials. Through AUREVÉ, I wanted to take that curiosity beyond the laboratory and create something people could experience in their everyday lives. What others see as waste, I see as an opportunity to rethink, redesign, and give something a new beginning.”

    Founder, AUREVÉ

    Why AUREVÉ

    A second purpose

    We give suitable discarded peels and petals a second life, rather than relying only on newly harvested materials.

    Formulated with research

    Every product is formulated by a researcher and tested before it reaches you.

    Made to gift

    Add a personal message when you order and we will include it with your candles.

    Join the collection network

    What you discard can have a second life. If you run a juice stall, a flower shop or a decoration business, or your household has peels and petals to spare, we would like to hear from you.

    Juice and fruit vendors

    Orange, sweet lime, lemon and pomegranate peels.

    Florists and decorators

    Rose petals, marigold and seasonal flowers left after events.

    Households and communities

    Peels from your kitchen, gathered together with your neighbours.

    Offer peels or petals

    Everything is collected, sorted and cleaned before it is used.

    Good to know

    Is the fragrance made from the discarded botanicals?

    Dried peel and petals alone do not give a strong, lasting scent in wax. So each AUREVÉ fragrance is composed from natural and botanical-inspired fragrance blends, guided by the character of the botanicals that inspire it. The recovered materials shape each candle and its story, and are included in a product only where that is safe.

    Are the mithai candles edible?

    No. They are candles shaped like Diwali sweets, and they are not edible. Please keep them away from children and pets, and never leave a burning candle unattended.

    How do I get the best burn?

    On the first burn, allow the wax to melt across the full surface before extinguishing. Trim the wick to about 5 mm before each use, keep loose dried peel and petals away from the flame, and never leave a burning candle unattended.

    How does ordering work?

    Choose your candles, add them to your bag and continue to payment. You pay by UPI, then send your order and payment screenshot to us on WhatsApp. We confirm your order as soon as the payment reaches us.

    When will the other products launch?

    We are launching with candles for Diwali, and the customisable mithai candle box is available now on request. Skin care, hair care, roll-ons and attars, and festival herbal gulal follow. Use the Notify me button on any product and we will tell you as soon as it is ready.

    Delivery and damaged items

    Delivery charge and timing depend on your location and are confirmed with you before dispatch. If an item arrives damaged, message us on WhatsApp with a photo within 48 hours and we will put it right.

    Can I order for family, friends or a team?

    Of course. Tell us what you have in mind on WhatsApp and we will help you plan it, including larger orders and custom boxes.

    Can I send it as a gift?

    Yes. Tick the gift option in your bag and add your message. We will include it with the order.
