Bright Black candles "pay tribute to Black greatness one beautifully crafted candle at a time." Intended to "change narratives and enlighten the world," these candles' scents are intended to get you talking about the complexities of identity, rich Black history and community. Developed by Tiffany M. Griffin, PhD, with her husband Dariel, the Durham scent contains hints of tobacco, cotton and whiskey, each from local, treasured sources. It's carefully cultivated to pay homage to Durham's grit, authenticity and soul.

I don’t think Google reviews allow enough characters to sufficiently sing the praises of Bright Black. First of all, their candles smell amazing. They burn super clean and the scent is so nice. It quickly fills a room and every product I’ve tried has been a win. I gifted their candles last year to my whole management team and everyone loved them. Also, I attended one of their workshops and I got to learn about storytelling through scent and design a custom body fragrance! It was such a cool experience. Highly recommend checking that out as well. This small biz loves and supports the Durham community and we love and support them back. 💙

My girlfriend took me here for my birthday and we had a blast. The owner, Tiffany and her husband were so kind and helpful. My perfume is now a favorite in my collection and I can’t wait to go back and make more! Definitely visit if you’re in the area and down for a cool new experience with a dope vibe.

I went here for the first time during Black History Month on February 7. I went with my daughter, my granddaughter and Denise, which is my daughter‘s other mother. We went with the intentions of making perfume and we had such a blast. You walk in the door, you feel like you’re in your own culture from just looking around and the atmosphere. The place is so inviting. Tiffany, the owner explains everything to you. She makes sure you know what you’re doing so you come out with an amazing product. I made the perfume and every time I wear it people ask me, What do you have on it smells so good. I can’t wait to go back and try to make a candle or more perfume. I definitely recommend this place.

This experience was amazing!! The owner is the sweetest and helped along the full process.

This time I went to create my own fragrance and now I smell like flowers on a beautiful sunny day . The inside is so cute which is great for a date night, girls night out or just to get out the house and do something fun !

I also like that local artist work can be purchased .

This place is a gem!
I took my good mother for a girls day for her birthday and we had the best time.

The environment is comfortable and welcoming. The experience is top tier.

We all left with scents we were more than pleased with.

Tiffany and her team are amazing. Truly a gem I will definitely be returning to
