Southport is a litte slice of heaven with it's picture perfect main street that leads down to where the river meets the ocean and moss covered oak trees. Grab a bench or swing and watch the boats pass by to head into port. Also known for it's great location for fisherman. Which is why I'm naming this Beachwood scented candle Southport.
With the essence of sea salt, orange peel, and green grass fold into waves of sage and eucalyptus midnotes, which rest on an island of moss, teakwood, and patchouli.

Hampstead gained fame in the late 1700s, when it served as a temporary home for the first president of the United States. When residents say, “George Washington slept here,” they mean it. He bunked in a local public house in 1791 on his tour of the Southern states. In honor of his visit, the Washington Oak, now a massive live oak tree, was planted as part of a monument.
What scent better to acknowledge Hampstead than this elegant fragrance that suits both masculine and feminine sensibilities.
This captivating fragrance oil begins with hints of orange, grapefruit, and an infusion of sage that enhance the natural earthy quality. Lavender adds a soft floral and herbal touch to the heart of this scent, while oakmoss, amber, and tonka round out the base for a beautiful, deep character.
