“There is nothing more classic nor a better conversation starter than Charcoal,” Chrissy says. Charcoal combines cedarwood and sandalwood with smoky embers, burnt maple, and a hint of raspberry for a broody and full-bodied fragrance.

a romantic mood
“Everyone wants a sophisticated yet luxury twist to their romantic night in,” Chrissy says. “And Charcoal Rouge is my fave to light. “ Charcoal Rouge combines velvety damask rose, crushed geranium leaf bathed in spicy elemi resin with hints of lemon and infused with the smoky and earthy essence of burning birch to create an intoxicating and romantic fragrance.

The clear winner says Chrissy, is Hinoki Lavender. It’s “the perfect twist on your traditional relaxation vibe with a woody and grounding twist to balance you out.” Hinoki Lavender combines hinoki cypress with fresh lavender enhanced by hints of lotus flower and sandalwood to create an earthy and revitalizing fragrance.

“The best classic fragrance to both impress and leave your guest wondering, ‘What is that scent?’ is our White Vetiver,” Chrissy says. White Vetiver combines silky cashmere, eucalyptus, and lilac mingled with earthy vetiver, creamy sandalwood, crisp amber, and white cedar for a unique and elegant fragrance.
