Mandarin Basile Candle

If a candle could transport you to a Mediterranean citrus grove at golden hour, this would be it. The Mandarin Basile Candle is the ultimate mood-lifter—layering bright mandarin, basil, and warm woods for a scent that feels both grounded and fresh. It’s ideal for early evening gatherings or sprucing up your space before company arrives. Trust us, your guests will ask what smells so good.

Cece Candle

Equal parts spicy and smooth, the Cece Candle brings bold energy in the chicest way. Notes of smoked cedarwood, cardamom, and soft leather make it feel like a high-end lounge in candle form. Light it for intimate dinners or cocktail hours when you want a scent that feels confident and a little unexpected.

Neroli Leaf Candle

Bright, green, and softly floral, the Neroli Leaf Candle is made for daytime hangs and sun-soaked get-togethers. It captures that just-cleaned-house feeling with zero effort—and we’re always here for a shortcut. With neroli blossom, basil, and petitgrain, it’s subtle but still makes a statement.

Steeped Rose Candle

Not your average floral. The Steeped Rose Candle blends tea rose, crushed stems, and hints of black pepper for a modern, earthy twist on a classic. It’s perfect for when you want to feel a little more grown-up and glam without overdoing it. This one’s a crowd-pleaser (and a vibe-setter).

Cipres Mint Candle

Fresh and energizing with a twist of sophistication, the Cipres Mint Candle smells like nature got a designer upgrade. Mint and eucalyptus meet cypress and musk for a scent that feels crisp and cool—perfect for refreshing your space before guests arrive or unwinding post-event.
