This candle is the essence of forest bathing, a practice the Japanese call shinrin-yoku. Forest bathing is an intentional, slow, mindful time spent in the woods, absorbing all the healing scents of the trees, ground, fungi, and air. The benefits are well-studied and include reduced stress and anxiety, better sleep, improved immunity, happier mood, and higher creativity.

To honor the Japanese reverence and promotion of forest bathing, the scent of the hinoki pine tree is the center of this fragrance. Hinoki is a type of cypress tree with a beautiful aroma of woodsy pines and citrus. To truly capture the feeling of being in the woods, a touch of petrichor adds the atmospheric scent of damp earth after a rain. This is not your typical pine scent! It is an earthy, true-to-life forest fragrance that will grab your attention and possibly become your go-to nature therapy.

This fragrance is infused with essential oils including cedarwood, fir needle, patchouli, cypress, galbanum, and vetiver.

The cold scent of this candle is consistent with how the candle smells while burning, although the petrichor note becomes more mellow and balanced when lit.
