ABOUT US

OUR COMPANY

' Home to Perth's largest range of clean non-toxic, refillable vegan candles, home fragrance, perfumery and botanical wellness product '

Independently owned & operated GENERICS Urban Apothecary first opened doors in 2015 with a humble corner store nestled in the heart of Northbridge, Western Australia.

 Well known for our refillable vegan candles and Half price refills - we pride ourselves in producing fragrances without the nasties. 100% Natural soybean wax without unnatural additives, no parabens, no phthalates , our products are vegan and cruelty free.  With more than 50 clean fragrance blends across the menu each season, clients can choose their fragrance suspension from fresh made refillable candles , botanical room oils, linen sprays to Eau De parfums and more . 

In a bid to encourage re-use and sustainability, our popular HALF PRICE REFILL service for all empty glassware, appeals to those seeking continued use at an affordable price. 

 Utilising both traditional artisan and modern production techniques, all GENERICS Urban Apothecary products are small batch made from scratch in our Perth based production facility before delivery to our store front every week.

Expanding the retail offering, in 2023 GENERICS officially launches two new manufacturing divisions within the company. BLANC LABEL Bespoke Wellness Manufacturing and RENT A SCENT candle hire service.
