Beautiful Scents. Safe for Every Member of Your Family.

If you share your home with pets, you know the challenge: you want a beautifully scented space, but you also want to keep your dogs, cats, and birds safe. The good news is you don't have to choose.

At You Me & Emilio, every candle is hand-poured with 100% natural soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oils — a cleaner, gentler burn that's thoughtfully crafted for households with pets. No paraffin. No harsh synthetic compounds. Just premium fragrance, made with care.

Why Soy Candles Are Better for Pet Households

  • Cleaner burn — soy wax produces significantly less soot and fewer VOCs than paraffin
  • Lower fragrance concentration — candles release fragrance at a much lower level than diffusers or incense
  • Phthalate-free — our fragrance oils are free from phthalates and other harsh synthetic compounds
  • Slow, even burn — less smoke, more scent, longer lasting

The Most Pet-Friendly Scents

Not all fragrances are equal when it comes to pet safety. Here are the scents that are generally considered safest for pet households:

  • Vanilla — warm, sweet, and one of the most universally pet-friendly scents available
  • Coconut — mild and gentle in candle concentrations
  • Spearmint — fresh and clean; lower risk than peppermint for dogs
  • Lavender — calming and widely tolerated in dog households (use with ventilation)
  • Palo Santo — not listed as toxic to dogs; grounding and sacred

How to Burn Candles Safely With Pets

  • Always burn in a ventilated room — open a window or door
  • Give your pet a way to leave the room freely
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended with pets nearby
  • Start with short burn times when introducing a new scent
  • Watch for signs of sensitivity — sneezing, watery eyes, or leaving the room
  • Avoid diffusers and incense around cats and birds
