Max Benjamin

Max Benjamin is a family owned, candle-making studio situated in the Wicklow Mountains surrounded by rambling scented hedgerows and breathtaking scenery.

The family's Belgian father and Irish mother moved to this remote and beautiful part of Ireland back in the 70’s, bringing with them a classic Flemish aesthetic. As children, growing up in the wilds of Glencree Valley, this love of design and adventure was passed on them. Having arrived back from New York in 1996, founder Orla Van den Bergh, started the candle-making business.

Renamed Max Benjamin after her twin boys, Max and Ben, our founding philosophy — to uplift everyday lives through the power of evocative scent — is as true today as it was back then. We are now one of Ireland's leading makers of handmade home fragrance products globally. Using only 100% natural wax, our scents are inspired by both our travels around the world and by the natural habitat on our doorstep, helping you relax and unwind.

Orla Van den Bergh FOUNDER

From her college summers in America, Orla brought her love of fragrances, simple elegance, and artisan candles home to the Wicklow mountains. Exchanging work shifts for hands-on tuition she dived into mastering the design of candles. After a few fire-raising beginnings in the family kitchen, Max Benjamin evolved and was named in honour of Orla’s twin sons; Max and Benjamin. Growing up and living in the Wicklow mountains Orla had a huge appreciation for the outdoors and our environment which inspires all elements of our design today.
David Van den Bergh MANAGING DIRECTOR

Even though David is the youngest sibling in the Van den Bergh family he brings a sense of calm and structure into the team as he oversees the sales and operations functions within the company. After studying Finance & French in university David started his career in the software industry while living in Australia. When he returned to Ireland in 2003, Mark and Orla asked him to join them to help make their plans for Max Benjamin come to life.
Mark Van den Bergh BRAND & CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Mark started his career in sales working abroad in Germany selling Irish Beer before making a shift to acting where he delved into theatre and some TV work, which comes in very handy when we need him in front of the camera! Coming from an entrepreneurial background Mark always had the desire to run his own business and after Orla had set up Max Benjamin, Mark took the opportunity with both hands to join her and put his selling skills to the test.
