About MELT — Meet the Founder

Born from a spark. Crafted with soul.

In 2024, MELT was created from a personal need — not just for cleaner, non-toxic, and sustainable candles, but for intentional beauty in everyday life. A way to slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect with the warmth of our own space.

Behind every candle stands Eleni Kotti, founder and creative mind of MELT. Having studied Entrepreneurship Management at DEREE – The American College of Greece, Eleni always had an eye for detail and a deep fascination with how aesthetics shape emotion. Her academic background gave her the tools, but it was her love for creativity, home rituals, and conscious living that truly lit the fire.

Candles that don’t just burn — they speak.

Each candle is handcrafted with 100% soy wax, carefully selected fragrances, and a minimal design ethos — made to complement serene, modern interiors while being gentle on your health and the planet.

What began in a small Athens apartment, experimenting with wax and wicks, became a growing studio built around slow living, emotional design, and eco responsibility.

At MELT, we don’t just sell candles.
We create atmospheres.
We bottle up moments of peace.
We celebrate stillness — with purpose and aesthetic.

Let’s Light the Way Forward

Whether you're setting the mood, gifting a loved one, or simply curating your own home sanctuary — you're part of this story, too.

Made in Greece,
With intention.
