The meaning of 'Ruhe' comes from a Germanic word that reflects this product image which is quiet and peaceful. The tag line of this product is 'Relax, Cozy, Fresh' this product offers this kind of soothing feeling to their customer.

With Ruhe, they offer a premium product with a low price to all their beloved customers so that everyone with any background can enjoy this soothing feeling. What is special about this product is, the container is environmentally friendly as its users can recycle it after the candle is used up. Instead of using glass like other products, they use tin material as their container. They decided to choose this material because tin is more durable, and the worst-case scenario is it will be deformed. Even though the container becomes deformed, their customer could still fix it and return it into an original shape. Talking about this product background, the owner decided to start producing Ruhe scented candles because he realizes that as humans, sometimes it just want to take some time off and relax after a great long day.

He wants to share the positive energy and good vibes with all our beloved customers with this product. When redesigning this product, to make it look premium, we have chosen a clean and minimalist design to portray this product image. The combination of white and a few main colors is yellow for vanilla, purple for lavender, green for gardenia and the last one is red for rose. Typography as the main design attraction used a calligraphy style. What makes this product more unique is the tin container, the original marble texture remains but the difference is it is in a low opacity to keep our clean white look as the main identity. Overall, this minimalist concept does compliment and does portray this product as classy and premium even though the price is not that high compared to other brands. Most of the scented candles sell here are from the international companies that are available in Malaysia. The competition for small local businesses like Ruhiger Ort Enterprise is quite challenging and up until now, the market is still great.
