A scent inspired by Septembers quiet transition. The warmth of summers sun slowly giving way to the crisp air of autumn.

Golden hour feels much the same. A liminal moment between day and night, when the setting sun washes everything in warm, glowing light. Golden hour was created to tell that story through scent.

Soft apple and cranberry drift in on a breeze before settling into a rich juniper and cedar wood. This scent is warm, slightly woodsy, and the perfect blend of fall and late summer aromas. An early September evening spent walking outdoors as the sun begins to set.

🕯️ Available Sept 4th

Something that fascinates me about the moon is that for as long as people have been on this earth we have all looked at the moon and given it a meaning. Every culture has its own lore associated with the moon. We can’t resist the human urge to give something so beautiful and mysterious symbolism and meaning. I think it’s so beautiful and deeply connecting. This is one scent I’d love to capture but nothing I’ve conjured up has been deemed worthy of me yet to encompass the feeling of watching moonlight dance on the water. What scents come to mind for you when you watch this?

A scent inspired by the beautiful and strange worlds spun in dark fantasy novels.

Under the moonlight, mist settles over a meadow. Greenery tangles with thistle and nettle, dark flowers bloom between the bramble. A beautiful mystical place filled with mystery that you could wander for hours.

But not everything beautiful in the meadow is as it appears. Some of the most beautiful flowers have thorns, others look enticing to pick but sting you like nettle. The question looms, are they a gift or a snare?

Dark Meadow is a mysterious, earthy floral for those who find beauty in dark places.

Blending fragrance notes is my absolutely favorite part of creating a new scent. I love playing around with the composition of a fragrance and amber is one of my most used fragrance notes. It’s a chameleon scent in my opinion and works well with everything from earthy, to floral, and even spicy scents. Not often the star of the show but the grounding note in many candles. My most amber forward candle is part of my Halloween line, Bewitched it’s a blend of spiced honey, tonka beans, and amber and to***co leaf. What’s your favorite scent note when you look for candles or perfume?

Maritime Folklore has always captured my imagination. New England has such deep ties to the ocean and the stories and myths have always called to me. Merrows, the subject of my latest release, are merfolk of Irish lore, but we have our very own rich history and folk tales of the sea here in Massachusetts. We have lore of the sightings of merfolk off the coast of Nantucket, tales of pirates like Blackbeard and Captain Kidd pirating the New England coastline, tales from sailors about massive sea serpents and other fantastical creatures. Sitting at the beach and sketching out the world I wanted to create and communicate through scent the gentle waves feel almost like a lullaby, but I can’t help but let my imagination wander to what lies below the waves, or day dream about what kind of creatures we have yet to meet. There’s something equally soothing and mysterious about the sea that I can’t help but want to share some of its stories.

The Turning Tide Shop update is live! A late summer update to my permanent collections.

Merrow’s Lament arrives today in candle and linen spray, and diffuser form, carrying sea water, juniper and the faint smoke of driftwood through your home. A lament to the sea.

Aham Prema has been reimagined in summer rain, honeysuckle, rose petals and rain soaked stems. A softer, and more airy interpretation of this intention candle.

Crystal Intention Candles have also got an update. You can now experience these without the crystals and additives if you just want to work with the energy.

I’ve crafted each piece to represent a particular story or intention for you to experience. It’s finally time to let them leave my workshop and let everyone experience them.

Tomorrow the tide is turning.

At 6pm, I’ll be doing a final shop update before we head into fall and winter seasons. A new scent, a reimagination of Aham Prema and a new way to enjoy your existing rituals.

There’s something that feels so liminal about late summer. I’m still holding onto and savoring summer but dreaming about fall foliage and cooler weather. I love the introspection and coziness fall and winter bring. Turning tide felt like an appropriate name for this update as we begin to move from late summer to fall.

The Turning Tide Update arrives tomorrow: August 14th at 6pm est
