About Me

Hello and welcome to Piokira Candles! I'm glad you're here.

My name is Adrian Winczasek and I am the creator behind Piokira Candles. During the day I work as a Global Customer Service Senior Project Manager, but when evening falls and inspiration strikes, I dive into my world of candle making. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion - and now a journey that brings joy, creativity and connection to my life.

I have always been fascinated by the magic of fragrances and their ability to evoke memories and emotions. This fascination has led me to experiment with different wax blends, scents and techniques. After countless attempts (and a few spills), I discovered the art of making candles that are as unique as they are delightful.

The name “Piokira” itself has a personal meaning as it combines elements of creativity and connection that are at the heart of this journey. Each candle is crafted with care, using carefully selected materials and unique scent combinations - including some inspired by unexpected ideas, like our upcoming gin and tonic scent!

When I'm not pouring wax or perfecting new blends, I spend time with my Shiba Inu, Piorun, who brings me endless joy and inspiration every day. As I continue to hone my craft, I am grateful for every opportunity to connect with other candle lovers and share the warmth that Piokira Candles radiates.

Thank you for supporting me on my journey and contributing to the growth of Piokira Candles. I hope that these candles bring as much light and joy to your spaces as they do to mine.

Best regards,
Adrian
Founder of Piokira Candles
