Scents for warm weather.

Scent behaves differently in a warm, open room than a closed winter one. Heat lifts fragrance and moves it around, so a scent that felt gentle in June can feel strong in December. In the warm months we reach for the lighter, fresher notes and let them do less.

Coconut & Lime is the one we light most in summer. It is bright and clean, fresh on a warm evening, and good for a bright kitchen or a bathroom, or first thing in the morning. Black Raspberry & Vanilla is close behind, soft and comforting rather than heavy, and easy to live with all year round.

The warmer, grounding scent still has its place. Black Cherry is dark and a little dramatic, better kept for the cooler evenings, when a closed room can hold it. In high summer it can sit heavy, so we pour it less and light it later in the season.

If you are not sure where to start, the scent guide breaks the range down note by note, and the candles are there to browse by form. Start light, and let the season lead.
