As we walked into the shop to restock our candles today, we were surprised to see that our pristine white walls have been burned! What’s odd is that the scorch mark seems to have pink glitter in it. We aren’t sure what could have done this. If anyone knows what this could be, let us know, and don’t forget to stop by for a candle!

Wow, thank you so much to everyone who ordered a seconds candle from us this year! We were blown away by the response. Many orders have already shipped, and we hope to have the rest out by the end of the week.

We still have a handful of Signature line wood wick candles in a variety of scents marked down 20%. Once they’re gone, they won’t be restocked, so grab one now if you love those wicks! 🕯️

When I was a kid I spent entire days making elaborate cards for my parents. I grew up to become a graphic designer specializing in print and packaging before eventually starting my own fragrance brand. If you told that kid she’d one day design her own line of scratch & sniff greeting cards for a brand she built from scratch, she wouldn’t have believed you... but here we are!

This project marries my love for design and print with my love for fragrance. Meet the second card in the series: Stargazing in the High Desert. Notes of clary sage, lavender, and sandalwood. This scent feels like being surrounded by a vast, dark, open sky filled with stars. We collaborated with the amazing .catherine of to bring the scene to life.

Windswept Juniper and Ocean Mist.

The first card in the Scents of Oregon series of scratch-and-sniff greeting cards for anyone who loves the Oregon coast. Gently scratch the illustration to bring the scent to life. Smells like a windy bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean with notes of juniper berry, warm beach grass, sea salt and cypress.
