After perfecting the Pandan & Lemongrass scent, Jacqueline's daughter insisted she work on a scent that reminded them of annual hanami festivals in Japan. Jacqueline could not agree more as cherry-blossom viewing was associated with memories of relaxation. And because Jacqueline always enjoyed a cup of green tea in her hands during these festivals, she was determined to pair the scent of sakura with green tea to bring forth pleasant memories.
But getting the sakura scent right was not easy. It took almost a year of testing and working with several fragrance makers before Jacqueline found one she liked. The result is her Sakura & Green Tea soy candle, with the light, floral scent of sakura blended with the earthy, fresh scent of green tea. The scent is both fragrant and relaxing, and a wonderful way to transport yourself to Japan's seasonal hanami festivals even if you are unable to attend one.

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.
