Catherine Howard
Journey back in time to a Tudor queen's world of youth, beauty, and passion. A collaboration with celebrated historian and author Gareth Russell, the KLEIO Catherine Howard luxury candle offers an olfactive interpretation of a Tudor-era dry perfume favored in the mid sixteenth century.
The candle's vessel label features the authentic signature of Catherine, accented in rich gold.
SENSORY HISTORY AROMAS: Rosa Damascena, Labdanum, Calamus, Orris, Benzoin, and Musk
The Catherine Howard candle was created as a multisensory complement to Gareth Russell's acclaimed book Young and Damned and Fair. This book is currently our Readers Society Official Selection.

KLEIO relies on the incredible scholarship of historians—from ancient to present day—who have produced detailed texts, books, and first-hand accounts on sensory history.
When researching potential KLEIO concepts, we pore over scores of sources—and collaborate with experts—to ultimately create our interpretation of a select sensory moment in time.
KLEIO candles are phthalate free and dye free. Our fragrance oils are free of carcinogens, mutagens, and reproductive toxins. Each candle features a proprietary coconut apricot wax blend, fragrance oils sourced from perfumeries throughout the world, and high-quality cotton wicks designed to provide an optimal burn. We use a high fragrance-to-wax ratio, resulting in a powerful aromatic experience.
As an artisanal company, our candles are hand finished, featuring hand-applied gold and silver leaf and a robust, heavy-base glass vessel. Each vessel is truly one of a kind—no two are alike.
KLEIO is committed to being an eco-conscious company. While we are past-obsessed, we do so with thoughtful consideration of the future. We believe that beauty and elegance should be in harmony with environmental sustainability. Learn more about how we achieve this.
