About Us

Who is Owlkemy?

We're a woman-founded, small-batch candle and home scents studio nestled in the heart of Iloilo City — and every single thing we make is poured with love.

Owlkemy was born from the hands and heart of Katte Hibionada, who believed that wax and scent could be more than just a candle on a shelf. That they could tell a story. Stir a memory. Spark a smile.

We've always believed that art has no single form — and for us, it found its home in fragrance and flame. From scents that carry you back to your happiest childhood moments, to creations that make you wonder "wait, I made that?" — everything we do is designed to awaken that wide-eyed, child-like curiosity that lives in all of us.

Because magic doesn't have to be grand. Sometimes, it's just a candle that smells like everything you love.
