Sunlit Yuzu
your daily dose of sunshine.
most citrus candles let you down.
you light it, you wait, you smell nothing.
or worse, it hits you with that sharp synthetic cleaner smell that gives you a headache by hour one.
citrus candles tend to fall into two camps:
we wanted to build something different.
inspired by the first time we tasted real yuzu.
when i first tasted fresh yuzu straight from the tree, i couldn't believe how balanced it was. not sour like lemon, but soft and bright with a little white floral note, a touch of grapefruit sweetness, and something green underneath it all.
i wanted to bottle that exact feeling. the sunlight, the leaves, the air around the trees. not just the fruit.
a yuzu candle, built differently.
over a year of formulation. designed to feel fresh and uplifting without ever turning overpowering.
limonene-rich citrus oils your brain reads as uplift. eucalyptus opens the lungs. rhubarb sharpens the senses. light it, inhale, the room exhales and so do you.
we didn't rely on a synthetic yuzu accord. we built each layer of scent one by one with grapefruit, lemon, rhubarb, and eucalyptus essential oils to recreate the real fruit. bright, green, alive.
sourced from a multigenerational beekeeper. blended with coconut oil and in-house plant based oils. clean burning, non-toxic, pet-safe.
no harsh throw, no headache after an hour. just bright citrus, green leaves, and warm sunlit air filling your home.
what's inside the jar.
four notes. nothing extra.
what our testers said.
on hot throw, testers noted it smells more citrus and green, not floral.
be the first to light it.
