At Ora élia, we believe in creating meaningful moments through scent, guiding you to pause, reflect, and reconnect. What started as a passion for candles has grown into a brand dedicated to blending faith, self-care, and modern living - offering candles, diffusers, wax melts, perfumes and more to enhance your everyday rituals. 

Founding the UK’s First Halal Sip & Wick and Sip & Spritz experiences, bringing people together to create, connect, and embrace self-care is at the heart of everything we do.

Each product is thoughtfully crafted to help you prioritise your well-being, embrace stillness, and find peace in the chaos of life. With contemporary designs rooted in Islamic values, Oraélia is a reminder that faith and self-care go hand in hand.

✨ Illuminate Your Path – More than just products, our collections create space for introspection, mindfulness, and deeper connection.

✨ Faith in Modernity – A seamless blend of Islamic tradition and contemporary elegance, designed to complement your lifestyle.

✨ Time for You – Amidst life’s demands, carve out time to pause, realign, and recharge—because you deserve it.

Oraélia is more than a brand; it’s a community and a movement—one that embraces faith, self-care, and the beauty of being present. 

Our candles and wax melts are non-toxic, containing 100% soy wax and are paraben and paraffin free. Each product  is hand poured and quality controlled to the highest standard, before being placed in our luxurious packaging.

When you purchase our products and experiences, you’re not just treating yourself—you’re also contributing to sponsoring an orphan, making your purchase a form of Sadaqah Jariyah that continues to give. As followers of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), it is our duty to ensure that orphans are cared for and supported therefore a percentage of our profits go towards sponsoring orphans worldwide. Their stories will be posted on our website and across our social media pages as we receive updates from them throughout the year.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey—whether you’ve purchased a candle, attended a Sip & Wick, shared a kind word, or simply believed in this vision. Your love and support have made Oraélia possible, and I can’t wait to continue growing, creating, and sharing this space with you.

With gratitude,
Zahra Aliyyah
