Founder & CEO

    Meet Niambi Ingram.

    A storyteller, filmmaker, woman of faith, and the creative force behind She Is Experiences.

    “Her candle goeth not out by night.” — Proverbs 31:18

    Niambi is Swahili for 'melody.' Aprili means 'born in April.' A melody born in April, so it's no surprise fragrance became her soundtrack.

    The story

    From Storytelling to Scent

    A life in storytelling, expressed through scent.

    For more than 27 years, Niambi has worked in entertainment and filmmaking—building worlds, shaping emotion, and understanding what makes a moment stay with us. She brought that same instinct to fragrance.

    Storytelling builds worlds.

    Film shapes emotion.

    Scent brings memory close.

    Experience turns a moment into something lasting.

    The beginning

    And That's How She Is Experiences Was Born

    Scent can shift the energy of a room.

    Making something by hand brings us back to ourselves.

    A shared table makes space for honest connection.

    Wellness can feel joyful, expressive, and entirely your own.

    Don't just buy the scent. Experience it.

    Connection.

    Where we've been

    The Journey

    2020

    She Is Candles is founded in Los Angeles

    2021

    The business moves home to Birmingham, Alabama

    Today

    She Is Experiences brings candle, perfume, and fragrance experiences to couples, companies, communities, and celebrations

    The promise

    Luxury Without the Intimidation

    She Is Experiences began in Los Angeles, California in 2020 and relocated to Birmingham, Alabama in 2021, where we are headquartered today. We are Birmingham's original mobile candle and perfume-making workshop, and we travel nationwide.

    Birmingham is our home base, and our weekly classes run downtown at Creed63 — rooted in the same vegan, organic candle house Niambi built on beauty, intention, and the belief that what we make can help people feel more present.

    She Is Experiences and Luminé Bar grew from that foundation: two ways to bring scent off the shelf and into real gatherings. Each experience is designed to invite connection, honor individuality, and leave guests with a tangible memory.

    Burn clean. Save the planet.

    That intention comes together in a simple promise: Burn clean, save the planet.

    Don't just buy the scent. Experience it.
