Truth is a fragrance that transcends expectation, where intricate details form a complete and captivating masterpiece. It is bold, unmistakable, and endlessly compelling, crafted to linger both in memory and presence.
Lime and lavender spark with vivid clarity, bright and immediate, tempered by the soft coolness of water notes. Jasmine and peony bloom with understated opulence, while star anise adds a hint of spice that sharpens and defines. Pine, both fresh and resinous, grounds the composition with its deep, verdant energy.
The foundation is built on driftwood and white woods, layered with Virginian cedar-wood’s golden richness. Ambergris and crystal amber diffuse a glowing warmth, while silver musk lends a smooth, tactile finish that lingers like a quiet echo. Truth transcends its complexity, becoming a statement of timeless artistry—a scent that defines the essence of sophistication.
We are guided by a simple philosophy: to remain authentic, to create with intention, and to offer something truly original. Truth is the ultimate expression of this ethos - an iconic debut that redefines the world of high-perfumery candles.

TESTIMONIALS
"Been testing out these magical candles (...) inspired by Ancient Egypt and crafted with the most beautiful ingredients "– Kristina Bazan (artist, entrepreneur and fashion influencer)

"It’s like having mojito on the beach of a costal town, while exotic resins burn in the background. On a table, 2 feet away is an herbal and floral arrangement. The scent profile is incomparable. The packaging and craftsmanship of the vessel is luxury. If we’re judging by performance, scent and look, then this is definitely top tier."– @lets_talk_candles on Instagram

Let customers speak for us
from 12 reviewsHappy with my purchase. Customer care very friendly
Exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. The colors and finishes add a unique touch to any space. Didn’t disappoint and look forward to the launch of new pieces
This candle is absolutely superb! The scent fills the room with a perfect balance and creates such a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Quality is fantastic and the ceramic holder adds beauty to any place
Fantástico producto, tanto por la fragancia que desprende como la calidad.
Conheci esta marca atravs de uma amiga e sou cliente desde entao. A vela que comprei tem um aroma super peculiar - muito bem conseguido e adoro o fresco dos citrinos com uma parte mais doce que imagino que seja pela rosa e flor de ltus. 5 estrelas e levantamento no atelier super fcil.
I bought this candle especially for the porcelain container but the fragrance was the most surprising thing for me. I imagine myself using this as a personal perfume. It's very complex profile and it does leave a scent in my house even without being turned on. The balance between the fresh notes of lime mingles so well with the flower notes and the amber. A masterpiece. Customer service was also top noch.
Todo en esta vela me hace pensar en lujo. Al nivel de las mejores marcas italianas de velas perfumadas en cermica. Se nota la calidad en cada detalle incluso en su embalaje. Me encantaria poder comprarla en fisico en espaa.
É a segunda vela que compre na Sneferu. Adorei Balance e esta vela"amber" é talvez a minha preferida de sempre. A experiência de compra, o aroma, a beleza dos materiais... Estou extremamente orgulhosa de ver luxo português com esta qualidade. Ansiosa para conhecer mais.
Creamy, sweet but not overwhelming! It's like being in a sicilian bakery having a filled pistachio brioche!
Not only is the receptacle absolutely wonderful, but this candle is absolutely fantastic! Hot and cold throws are amazing and it burns well. This was my first purchase, and I loved the personalized note that came with my candles. Really lovely touch.
Wonderful, classic, and classy. Feels like a trip back to a luxury spa of the ancients. Gentle lime, lavender and lotus scents, but also very much its own thing due to a unique amalgam of scents. Strong without being overwhelming, my fave of the two, although ‘Balance’ is wonderful too.
As the title says, this scent is a perfectly sweet gourmand. All of the notes can be picked out, and yet all blend together to form a creamy, incredible take on pistachio. Very nice strength of scent without even approaching being too strong, and it throws quite well too, even in my living room with a cathedral ceiling. It also burns super clean, and as long as you give it the proper amount of time to pool out, won't tunnel, though it does indeed take time due to the diameter and not perfectly round shape of the vessel. This is by no means a complaint though, as I've had far smaller candles take far longer to pool. The vessel itself is a true work of art - nicely glazed in parts and left rugged and unfinished in others.
Additionally, the customer service is top notch at Sneferu. I was having problems submitting payment via PayPal and had given up after 3 attempts, but no more than 10 minutes later, I received an email saying that it was noticed, the problem was fixed, and that I was being offered a10% coupon for the inconvenience (it totally wasn't). This coupon was in addition to the 30% off sale they were already running. They also included a mini sample of Amber, which is a nice cologne-esque scent as well.
All in all, top notch experience, and highly recommend this one! Thank you again Sneferu.
