✨ A Message from the Maker

Hey, I’m Ben—queer, stubborn, a little sweary, and the hands (and heart) behind Imperial Infusions.

This brand wasn’t born in a boardroom. It came from hospital beds, late-night ideas, and a deep desire to create things that make people feel something—seen, soothed, powerful, petty, whatever they need.

Imperial Infusions exists to make your space smell amazing, look sharp, and feel like you. No fluff, no fakery—just bold, beautiful products made with intention.

I don’t do beige. I don’t do boring. I craft candles, melts, mugs and more that turn everyday moments into a bit of bloody magic.

🔥 How It Started

Back in 2019, after getting the all-clear from cancer (the first time), I had one of those cliché-but-true lightbulb moments: if not now, when? So I started New York Cosmetics.

Life had other plans. Two more cancer diagnoses. A pandemic. A lot of soul-searching. Progress slowed, but the fire didn’t go out.

By 2023, it was clear it was time for something new—something real. So I rebranded. And just like that, Imperial Infusions was born: unapologetically honest, proudly queer, and built to blend sustainability with edge. A brand that finally felt like me, and made room for people like you.

🌿 Our Ethos

Sustainable. Ethical. No Bullshit.

At Imperial Infusions, we believe in doing things the right way—without the preachy vibes. Here’s how:

♻️ No Plastic, No Compromises

All our packaging is plastic-free and recyclable. Not because it’s trendy—because it’s non-negotiable.

🌱 Ingredients That Give a Damn

We use sustainable, ethical ingredients that do their job without harming the planet. Whether it's wax, scent, or soap, every element is sourced with care.

💚 Built for the Planet (and the People)

We’re not here to greenwash. We’re transparent about what goes into our products, and we’ll always prioritise people, planet, and purpose over profit.

🚀 Where We’re Headed

This is just the beginning. Imperial Infusions is evolving—constantly. Here’s what’s on the horizon:


We’re pushing for materials that go beyond recyclable—think compostable, reusable, and downright clever.


Lower waste. Smaller footprint. Same high-impact aesthetic.


Working toward low-emission delivery and carbon-neutral options.


Your feedback shapes our future. Got a wicked idea? We’re all ears.

We’re not aiming to be the biggest—we’re aiming to be the most authentic. If you're here for beautiful products with bite, and a brand that gives a damn, then welcome to the fold.

🖤 Come Be a Part of It

When you shop with Imperial Infusions, you’re not just buying a candle or a mug. You’re backing a one-person powerhouse, a passion project, and a promise that luxury can be rebellious, queer, and kind to the earth.

Thanks for being here. Let’s raise the bar—and the middle finger to the status quo.
