Ginger might be a staple in Asian cuisine, but in Jacqueline's family, it's so much more. Not only is it used in home-cooked meals, but ginger is also used to ease tummy aches and nausea. As a result, the scent of ginger is particularly comforting for Jacqueline's family, which is why she wanted to craft a scent that would highlight ginger as being more than a spicy root.
Hence Jacqueline created the Grapefruit & Ginger candle, a scent meant to impart joy. The grapefruit's subtle sweetness mixes well with ginger's spice to create a blend that pastes smiles on faces. Customers have stated they use this scent to help improve focus, especially during times of stress.

When first experimenting with candle-making, Jacqueline was shocked to learn adding pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils could be toxic due to the oils' low flashpoints. She further experienced this toxicity when she lit a candle with pure essential oils, only to experience headaches and vomiting.
With research, she learned the essential oils used in candles are actually stabilized compounds. However, Jacqueline wasn't pleased with the commercially available fragrances and found them artificial-smelling.
Now, she only works with fragrance makers to craft bespoke fragrances while ensuring all oils are made with stabilized essential oils and natural ingredients.
