Meet the Marketplace: Flicker & Tease
Flicker & Tease is a candle brand that flirts back. Light one up and you can unlock The Candle That Texts Back, a playful 7-day texting romance that makes fragrance feel like a love affair
CLIMAX is excited to welcome a lineup of innovators who are reimagining what sexual wellness can look like — playful, inclusive, and deeply inspiring. Among them is Flicker & Tease, a brand founded by two women who know that pleasure is as much about fantasy and story as it is about touch.
With candles that double as characters — each with a name, a kink, and even a texting romance — Flicker & Tease blurs the line between scent and seduction. This fall marks both their launch and their first-ever event, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to introduce them to the CLIMAX community.
Tell us about your brand, what inspire you to create and what makes it unique?
Flicker & Tease is a candle brand that flirts back. Each candle is a character with a name, a story, a scent — and a kink. Light one up and you can unlock The Candle That Texts Back, a playful 7-day texting romance that makes fragrance feel like a love affair.

Which of your products best represents your brand, and why?
Jesse the Bad Boy and Luke the Cowboy capture Flicker & Tease at its core. They’re iconic romance archetypes — danger and devotion — each with their own story, kink, and scent. Together, they show how candles can transform into crushes you can actually flirt with.
What new or exciting product will you be showcasing at CLIMAX?
CLIMAX marks Flicker & Tease’s very first event, and it coincides with their fall launch. What excites them most is bringing their world to life: a romantic, playful, sensual, and empowering experience where attendees can flirt with fantasy through The Candle That Texts Back.
What role do you believe pleasure plays in overall wellness?
For Flicker & Tease, pleasure isn’t optional — it’s essential. Pleasure grounds us, eases stress, and reminds us we’re worthy of joy and intimacy. Their mantra says it best: Claim Your Pleasure.
