FOREST RAiN

"Where the mist lingers, the storm whispers, and the earth awakens."

The mountains breathe, the rain falls, and the world is washed clean—it’s a blessing, a renewal, a whispered song carried by the wind. It falls softly through the dense canopy, weaving through moss-covered rocks and soaking into the rich earth, leaving behind the scent of fresh greenery, cool mist, and the crisp air before a downpour. Some say that mountain rain carries the voices of the past, cleansing the land and renewing the spirit.

This candle captures the feeling of standing deep in the forest as the first raindrops fall, the sky heavy with mist, the air alive with the scent of damp moss, fresh fruit-laden trees, and the distant hush of rolling thunder.

Scent Profile:

Bergamot, Pineapple, Green Apple – A fresh, crisp opening, like the first cool breeze before the rain, carrying the scent of ripening orchard fruit on the wind.

Mandarin – A soft citrus glow, warm yet fleeting, like the golden light just before the storm clouds gather.

Musk, Moss, Marine – A grounding finish, rich with earthy moss, deep musk, and the crisp, clean scent of rain-soaked air, as if standing in a misty Appalachian valley just after a summer storm.

The Experience:
As this candle burns, it fills the space with the tranquility of a mountain rain, fresh and grounding, yet alive with the energy of the storm. The crispness of orchard fruit, the hush of mist through the trees, and the deep, earthy scent of moss and rainfall create an atmosphere of peace, reflection, and renewal.

Perfect for:

  Those who love fresh, clean, and nature-inspired scents

  Creating a calm, meditative space for relaxation or focus

  Bringing the feeling of an Appalachian storm rolling in from the hills into your home

Light the flame, breathe deep, and let the mountain rain wash the world clean.

THE COVE

"Where the past whispers on the wind"

Tucked deep within the Great Smoky Mountains, Cades Cove is a valley where the past lingers, untouched by the rush of the modern world. Here, fog drapes over weathered homesteads, dirt roads wind through fields of wildflowers, and the scent of damp earth and moss clings to the morning air. Some say that if you wander these quiet paths at dawn, you might hear the faint creak of a wagon wheel, the echo of a fiddle tune, or the whisper of voices carried on the wind—as if the valley itself remembers those who once called it home.

This candle captures the spirit of Cades Cove’s lost-in-time beauty, where nature reclaims what was left behind, and every breath carries the scent of fresh mountain air, wild lavender, and the damp forest floor.

Scent Profile:

Cypress & Vetiver – A crisp, green opening that evokes cool mountain air drifting through tall pines and damp forest floor.

Tobacco Leaf – A warm, earthy heart with hints of sun-cured leaves and rustic charm, grounding the scent in quiet nostalgia.

Sandalwood & Ambergris – A smooth, lingering base of soft wood and subtle marine depth, like the fading warmth of a hearth in a forgotten cabin.


The Experience:
As this candle burns, it transports you to a place where time slows, the land breathes, and history lingers in the mist. The cool, earthy notes evoke dewy fields at sunrise, old wooden fences reclaimed by ivy, and the hushed reverence of a valley frozen in time.

Perfect for:

  Those drawn to Appalachian history, forgotten places, and quiet nostalgia

  Creating a space of calm reflection, grounding, and connection to nature

  A scent that feels both fresh and ancient, like the breath of the mountains themselves

Light the flame, close your eyes, and step into a moment lost in time.

THE BLUE SiDE OF THE MOUNTAiN

"Where the mist settles and the soul wanders"

A place just beyond reach, where mist meets memory and the mountains hum their old, lonesome song. A quiet, ethereal blue clings to the Smoky Mountain valleys, shifting with the light like a whispered secret. Some say the blue side of the mountain is a place of longing, where the past lingers like fog at dawn and echoes of forgotten songs ride the wind. Time slows there, the world softens, and something unseen is always calling from the distance.

Scent Profile:

Sage, Orange, Grapefruit – A fresh, herbal brightness, like the first breath of cool mountain air as the morning mist lifts.

Lavender – Soft and lonesome, like the scent of wild blooms carried on the wind, settling into the quiet spaces between ridges.

The Experience:
As this candle burns, it invokes the mystery and nostalgia of the blue side of the mountain—a place of longing, of wandering, of finding yourself in the hush of the hills. The crisp herbal notes blend with warm, earthy woods, wrapping you in the scent of fog-draped ridgelines, forgotten melodies, and the quiet magic of the mountains.

Perfect for:

  Those drawn to Appalachian landscapes, old stories, and mountain mist

  Creating a calm, grounding atmosphere for reflection and deep thought

  A scent that feels like home, yet still calls you forward—toward something just beyond reach

FIREFLY GATHERING

"The night wishes take flight"

A summer night alive with light, where fireflies dance in unison and the air hums with quiet magic.
Deep in the Appalachian mountains, there is a place where the fireflies gather—thousands of tiny lights flickering in perfect harmony, pulsing like stars fallen to earth. Some say these glowing creatures were once celestial embers, scattered across the hills by spirits who wished to keep the night illuminated. Others whisper that those who witness this rare event will be granted a wish—if they make it in silence, as the fireflies glow.

On warm summer nights, when the air is thick with the scent of wild blooms and the trees stand still beneath the weight of the moon, the fireflies emerge—a shimmering spectacle of fleeting beauty, a reminder that some magic exists only for those who take the time to see it.

Scent Profile:

Green Leaves – A fresh, dewy top note that captures the feeling of morning light filtering through a canopy of spring foliage.

Lilac, Lily of the Valley & Honeysuckle – A soft floral heart that blooms with nostalgic sweetness—delicate, airy, and full of quiet grace.

Powder & Amyris – A clean, comforting base of soft powder and subtly sweet amyris, like the lingering warmth of sun-dried linens on a gentle breeze.

The Experience:
As this candle burns, it brings to life the enchantment of a firefly-lit meadow, where the world slows, the night glows, and the air carries a sense of wonder. The scent lingers like a dream just out of reach, a soft shimmer of florals and woods wrapped in the warmth of summer’s embrace.

Perfect for:

  Those who love magical summer nights, glowing fireflies, and quiet enchantment

  Creating a soft, nostalgic atmosphere of warmth and wonder

  A scent that feels like a whispered wish drifting into the night air

Light the flame, watch the glow, and let the fireflies carry your wishes into the dark.

SPRING HOUSE

"Some stories refuse to be forgotten…"

In the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, hidden in quiet valleys, spring houses once kept food cool and water pure, but they were also places of mystery and healing. Locals believed that the fresh, clear waters of the springs held magical powers, capable of healing both body and spirit. The natural flow of water, chilled by the earth itself, was thought to carry with it ancient energy, its purity refreshing the soul as much as it cooled the body.

This candle captures the refreshing tranquility of a mountain spring house, where the air is cool with the scent of fresh water, green ferns, and the healing power of nature’s elements. A place where calmness reigns, and the energy of the earth is always close at hand.

Scent Profile:

Chamomile, Pear & Sage – A calming, herbaceous top softened by the gentle sweetness of pear and the quiet hush of chamomile in bloom.

Rose & Lavender – A floral heart that’s both romantic and grounded, blending classic rose with the clean, soothing calm of lavender.

Palo Santo & Patchouli – A deep, sacred base with earthy richness and a hint of mysticism—like incense lingering in a sunlit sanctuary.

The Experience:
As this candle burns, it fills the room with the crisp, cooling scent of spring waters, grounded in earthy floral tones and the refreshing, uplifting air of the Appalachian wilderness. It’s a scent that feels like a deep breath of fresh air, like stepping into a cool spring house on a warm day and feeling the weight of the world fall away.

Perfect for:

  Those who seek the calming power of nature and natural healing

  Creating a refreshing atmosphere for relaxation, meditation, or quiet reflection

  A scent that brings the peaceful, grounding presence of mountain spring water into your home

Light the flame, breathe deep, and let the healing waters of the mountains flow.

WILD MOUNTAiN HONEY

"Golden warmth, straight from the mountain’s heart."

High on the ridge, where the wildflowers bend and the bees hum low, sweet magic lingers in the air.
In the Appalachian mountains, honey has always been more than sweetness—it's medicine, offering, protection, and sometimes, a little bit of magic. Old stories tell of wild hives hidden deep in the forest, tended by no one, yet always full—a gift from the land itself. It was said if you found one, and took only what you needed, the bees would bless your harvest and your heart would never be empty.

This candle captures the golden glow of a sun-drenched hillside in late summer, where blooms buzz with life and the scent of warm honey and wildflowers drifts on the breeze like a hymn only the mountains know.

Scent Profile:


Jasmine, Honey – A bright, floral sweetness, like the golden pull of wild honey warmed in the sun.
Rose, Ylang, Orange Blossom – Lush and velvety, evoking blooming meadows and bees moving slowly through the still air.
Vanilla, Tonka – Soft and grounding, with a creamy warmth that lingers like a long afternoon in the garden.

The Experience:
As this candle burns, it fills the room with the warmth and wonder of a hidden grove, where time slows and every breath feels wrapped in gold. It’s a scent of abundance, gentleness, and wild sweetness, drawn from the heart of the mountain.

Perfect for:

  Those who love soft florals and warm, honeyed sweetness

  Creating a space that feels sunlit, comforting, and gently nostalgic

  Inviting in the essence of late summer meadows, golden light, and Appalachian magic

Light the flame, and taste the honey the hills have kept hidden.
