My Story So Far

Hello - thank you for visiting! I am Charlotte and I live in Hampshire with my partner and our two young daughters. Olivine and Ruby is currently a very small business and I am the sole maker of the home fragrance products I sell. I’ve been making candles for years and decided to build and develop this brand having been inspired by the world of design and passion for seeing the world. Read more about my everlasting love for travel here!

Recognising the beauty of things and places has become part of the nature of my work

I have always had a huge interest in interior design and home decoration. After I had my children it felt like a natural progression for me to combine my candle making skills, design education, love for interiors and passion for places. I haven’t looked back since!

I wanted to create a brand with specific core values: being sustainable, relatable and driven by quality. As a small business in the luxury sector, it was really important for me to do my bit for the environment and create home fragrance products that were responsibly made using quality equipment and cruelty-free, vegan ingredients all intricately handcrafted and poured by myself.

Please feel free to read ‘The Perfect Gift’ where I go into more detail about being a sustainable brand. These pillars are so important to me as a business and I am always keen to know what else we could be doing as a responsible business. If you have any ideas or thoughts, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

I hope you enjoy Olivine and Ruby's products as much as I love burning them in our own home. Enjoy browsing the range here.

Charlotte,
Founder & Director
