There's something to the saying, "Jack of all trades, master of none."
Over the past few years, I’ve realized I can’t do everything (and do it well) with so many variations. With more than 30 different scents in candles alone and over 9 different vessels, I knew I had to make a more sustainable change.
Navigating varying political economics and tariffs has proven more and more difficult for me to remain a debt free business. I continue to remain resilient and acknowledge that change can be inevitable and doesn't have to be so disheartening. Strong businesses know when to pivot and embrace finding solutions amongst the obstacles.
To reduce my overwhelm, stay stocked more consistently, and make space for new creativity (and healthier finances), I’m streamlining the studio to be more efficient by reducing my overhead and fragrance list.
That means it is your LAST chance for the following:
- Candle closeout sale ends February 28 (up to 50% off while supplies last)
- Iridescent candles are being discontinued across all candle lines
- 4 oz mini candle collection will be discontinued after 2026
- After Dark Collection is limited release and not scheduled to return
- 8 ml travel perfumes have been rebranded to a longer lasting 15 ml size (some scents have been restocked with latest inventory refresh)

Will discontinued scents ever return?
It's possible some scents may return in a future format or seasonal drop, but no promises! The idea is not to limit my creative freedom but to expand and create more and maybe even better fragrances to enjoy. If something’s a favorite, now is the time to grab it before it's gone for good.
What happened to Palo Santo?
For a while it was uncertain if Palo Santo would return. After lots of work behind the scenes, Palo Santo will officially relaunch and open for pre-orders in March 2026 with an anticipated ship date in May.
