Voluspa

TO INSPIRE THE JOY OF SELF-EXPRESSION THROUGH SCENT AND SENSES

VOL-UH-SPA
The name VOLUSPA originates from an ancient Norse poem, meaning beauty created from chaos.

At Voluspa, we handcraft an incredible range of extraordinary scents that are as inspired, complex, inviting, worldly, responsible and beautiful as you are, set in radiantly sophisticated glass that elevates every room and every mood. We encourage self-expression through exploration, and empower you to create the home that not only reflects who you are but tells the story of who you want to be.

Voluspa began in a California kitchen, as a labor of love—for the world, and all the ways scent lets you explore it. From the first handcrafted collection, Voluspa has grown into a global celebration of scent; with each new fragrance designed to take your senses on a flight of fancy, and transport you through your daydreams—to a time, a place, a moment, as vivid as a memory.

With inspiration as our guide, each collection brings together ingredients to capture the essence of the adventure through layers of scent and expressive artistry.
In all ways, Voluspa is the product of passion, chased and fulfilled— built around a team with a wealth of expertise and a collective devotion to bringing beauty and inspiration into your home, so that it may light your way— wherever your journeys may lead.

Troy and Tracy Arntsen transformed a simple idea into a global luxury candle brand renowned for its exquisite scents and impeccable quality. Hailing from Minnesota, Troy was a self-described “daydreamer” who defied expectations when he traded a promising engineering career for the world of essential oils. His decision, met with initial doubts from his family, was fueled by an unshakable entrepreneurial spirit.

In 1999, armed with only a few thousand dollars and the unwavering support of his partner, Troy relocated to Southern California with a dream to create Voluspa. What began as a humble kitchen operation—where late-night candle pouring was the norm—evolved into a global brand, with Voluspa candles now sold in over 80 countries. The company’s success stems from its commitment to using premium, natural ingredients and a dedication to elegant design, setting it apart in a market saturated with generic offerings.

Troy’s engineering background proved invaluable as he developed Voluspa’s signature coconut wax blend, a unique innovation that remains central to the brand’s identity. Over the past 25 years, he navigated the complexities of scaling a business, from building a team to mastering the e-commerce landscape, all while staying devoted to his family.

Today, Voluspa is a leader in luxury home fragrances, with Troy still passionately steering the ship. His journey from a small-town Minnesota dreamer to a successful entrepreneur is a powerful testament to the importance of pursuing one’s passions, upholding core values, and building a business with integrity and perseverance. Troy Arntsen, co-founder and president of Voluspa, transformed a simple idea into a global luxury candle brand renowned for its exquisite scents and impeccable quality.

Voluspa aims to be a thoughtful, design-forward fragrance brand that blends luxury and sustainbility. They center craftsmanship, high-quality, cleaning burning ingredients and enviromental responsibility- all while creating scents that evoke emotion, joy and self expression.
