A Love Letter to Carnival | Limited Edition
Smells Like Freedom
A bright, evocative candle inspired by the Caribbean’s living heartbeat. Carnival was born from resistance and blossomed into celebration. With sun-sweet pineapple, the confident bloom of carnation, and the creamy warmth of coconut, this scent captures the moment the road comes alive. Sweet soca and steel pan rhythms, bodies freely moving; freedom reclaimed in color and joy.
Traditions Behind the Scent
Carnival in the Caribbean rose from emancipation, an act of cultural reclamation where the formerly enslaved transformed defiance into dazzling expression. Mas, moko jumbies, and calypso and soca rhythms turned the streets into stages of memory and possibility. This candle honors that legacy: the right to take up space, to celebrate survival, and to craft joy from struggle. It’s a fragrant love letter to freedom in motion; ancestry, artistry, and the collective pulse of the road.
