Story Behind the Scents
Scent has a magical way of unlocking memories, like hidden maps guiding us back to cherished moments. Each Wax Crescent candle holds more than a fragrance; it’s a journey into my favorite memories and meaningful experiences. From beloved family traditions to quiet, dreamy moments, every candle invites you to step into its story and create memories of your own.
Tobacco & Teakwood
On summer nights as a little girl, I’d play along the edge of the woods, catching lightning bugs under the warm evening sky. My neighbor would sit outside with his pipe, and the sweet, smoky scent of tobacco, cedar, and cherry would drift through the air, weaving into the night as I ran barefoot in the grass. This candle captures that nostalgic warmth, evoking a feeling of comfort and the simple magic of childhood summers.
Lavender & Rosemary
This scent takes me back to childhood moments filled with the soft, soothing fragrance of lavender from my bubble baths and the earthy touch of rosemary hand soap in my grandmother’s bathroom. Together, they create a timeless, calming blend that feels like a warm embrace, carrying a sense of comfort and cherished memories.
White Tea & Ginger
This scent takes me back to a semester abroad in Australia, where the warm, welcoming fragrance of white tea and ginger greeted me each time I walked into a hotel. It brings to mind the thrill of travel and the elegance of a well-curated space, offering a sense of calm and wanderlust—a little reminder of adventure, no matter where you are.
Rosemary & Cedarwood
This scent takes me to my garden, where the earthy aroma of rosemary—my favorite herb—thrives among the plants. Gardening feeds my soul, grounding me and making me feel connected to the earth in a way nothing else does. Blended with the woodsy warmth of cedarwood, this candle captures the quiet joy of nurturing life, a reminder of nature’s strength and simplicity.
Chamomile & Lemon Tea
This scent takes me to quiet mornings where time slows, curled up on the couch with a favorite book and a warm mug in hand. It’s the comforting glow of winter nights by the fire, savoring the simple joy of a peaceful moment. Blending soothing chamomile with a bright touch of lemon, this candle is a gentle reminder of life’s coziest pauses.
Leather & Suede
This scent brings me back to my first apartment, living on my own, where I bought myself a beautiful, worn leather loveseat. It became my favorite spot, a place to unwind and find comfort after a long day. With warm notes of leather and soft suede, this candle captures that feeling of independence, cozy nights, and the quiet joy of creating a space that’s truly yours.
Black Fig & Bergamot
Figs have always been my favorite—a treat to savor during their short season, reminding me to appreciate life’s sweetest, fleeting moments. This scent captures the richness of fresh figs, balanced with bright bergamot, and a hint of nostalgia for the Fig Newtons I loved as a kid. It’s a blend of indulgence and memory, inviting you to pause and savor the moment.
Pistachio & Lemon
This scent brings me back to family holidays and the comforting sight of my Great Aunt Lizzie’s famous pistachio and lemon cake. Its sweet, nutty aroma filled the room, a symbol of warmth and tradition that brought us all together year after year. With notes of creamy pistachio and bright lemon, this candle captures that delicious nostalgia, inviting you to experience the joy of a cherished family recipe.
Oakmoss & Evergreen
This scent takes me back to early morning hikes in the woods with my dad, where the cool air was thick with the smell of pine and earth, and fog hung like a soft blanket over the trees. The quiet, misty mornings felt timeless, and the forest was our world to explore. With notes of oakmoss and evergreen, this candle captures the peaceful beauty of those dawn walks, bringing a breath of the forest into your home.
Pumpkin & Spiced Cream
This scent brings me back to childhood trips to the pumpkin patch, where hayrides and the excitement of picking the perfect pumpkin were traditions we looked forward to every fall. The warm, spicy notes of this candle capture the coziness of those autumn days, with a touch of sweet cream reminiscent of the treats we’d enjoy afterward. It’s an invitation to relive those playful, pumpkin-filled memories in the glow of home.
Cardamom & Cream
When I lived in Hawaii, the only hint of fall was the arrival of chai drinks in coffee shops. The warm, spiced scent of cardamom always brought a little taste of autumn to the islands. This candle blends that nostalgic touch of cardamom with creamy undertones, capturing the feeling of cozying up with a chai latte and savoring the subtle signs of the changing season.
Pomegranate & Evergreen
This scent brings back a treasured family tradition—each Christmas, my grandfather would bring home a pomegranate for my mom, a simple but cherished gift that symbolized the season’s love and togetherness. My mom continues that tradition today, bringing home a pomegranate each holiday season as a reminder of family and the magic of gathering. With the freshness of evergreen and the warmth of pomegranate, this candle invites you to share in our family’s tradition and the spirit of the season.
