Support Our Fundraising Efforts

Startups need capital to move with precision. Darling Anaïs LLC, a candle-forward fragrance laboratory and atelier, is raising $1M in pre-seed funding. We are on track to launch our expertly developed MVP catalog, secure top-tier manufacturing partners, and assemble an award-winning team.

Founded by Halima Haider—esteemed scholar, Miss Teen USA candidate, and visionary perfumer—Darling Anaïs is built on sustainability and innovation, uniting niche fragrance with beauty, fashion, and home décor.

Our capsule spans sculptural candles, home fragrances, and statement accessories—including perfumed gloves, high jewelry, and heirloom-quality hair adornments. Rooted in aristocratic values and storytelling through scent, each design is developed in collaboration with master perfumers, renowned manufacturers, and iconic artists.

Our distinction: sourcing the rarest raw materials worldwide to deliver a premium, non-toxic experience—free of parabens, phthalates, and sulfates—while standing at the pinnacle of luxury craftsmanship.

With a $7M valuation and projected ~35% year-over-year growth, Darling Anaïs is poised for rapid expansion—well positioned as the new American heritage brand redefining fragrance, interiors, and style.
