Understanding Candle Fragrances
Top Notes
These are the fragrances you'll notice most when you first smell your candle or before lighting it, what is known as the cold throw. Their job is to intrigue and provide a gentle introduction as to what lies ahead. As your candle sits cool, these are the elevating notes that will subtly enhance your living spaces. Like all delicate things a top note is fleeting, they evaporate quickly making way for the middle and base notes.
Middle Notes
Middle Notes, also referred to as Heart Notes appear quickly after your candle has been lit. These notes are far more stable and evaporate slower to keep your attention. They gently mingle with those fleeting top notes to give your candle it's personality.
Base Notes
Base notes come in right after the middle notes. They are powerful and invigorating and often linger well after your candle has been extinguished, this is because at a a molecular level they are much heavier than the other notes and evaporate the slowest. Base notes are what add complexity and much needed depth to your candle fragrance.

After extinguishing:
The hinoki and blossoms linger the longest.
Fragrance Strength
Your home, but better...
We purposely design our candle fragrances to enhance your living space and not over power it.
Scent strength is of course subjective but we hope to do our best in describing what you might expect from this fragrance.
We've determined this fragrance to be MODERATE/STRONG in our 12oz vessel and a little lighter in our 8oz vessel. It is ideal for those who like a bolder fragrance, with robust fragrance notes. It may be too strong for those with scent sensitivities.
Our scent strength descriptions are based on our findings in a room comparable to an average size living room (15ft x 20ft or 300 sq feet) with good airflow, this scent will be stronger in smaller sized rooms, and lighter in larger rooms.
Placement is everything...
Since our candles are proudly free from harmful ingredients such as phthalates and non-sustainable ingredients such as paraffin which are used to make scent throw stronger & further. Placing your candle in a spot to take advantage of the natural airflow of your room will do this instead. Try experimenting with a few different* placements.
*be sure not to burn in a drafty areas, to ensure a soot free, controlled burn.

NOTES FROM OUR FOUNDER
This candle smells like an otherworldly evergreen forest and blossoms in full bloom.
Romantic, right? We thought so. We burn this when we want our house to smell expensive AF!
This is one of our boldest scents, it's perfect if you like a strong, robust fragrance. We wanted to create a really floral fragrance, but also keep it gender neutral. When we say the florals in this are "heady" we really mean it but Hinoki is the star here. Crisp and fresh like you're pulling the needles straight off the tree.
If this candle were a song it would definitely be:
🎶Ministry - Karen O & Danger Mouse 🎶
-UPLIFTING-
YUZU
The lively fragrance of Yuzu waltzes between a tart grapefruit and a sweet mandarin. It grabs attention in the top notes of this candle.
-HEADY-
BLOSSOMS
Not a wallflower in sight! As vivacious as springtime in full bloom a bold bouquet of blossoms live at the heart of fragrance.
-SACRED-
HINOKI
The intoxicating scent of sacred Hinoki (Japanese Cypress) takes the spotlight. Rich, woody, spicy and reminiscent of a forest of evergreen trees it's renowned for its grounding and calming effects.
