Charisma (Garnet)
The smooth sophisticated scent of hazelnut, with supporting notes of coffee, cream, and petrichor.

Bravery (Amethyst)
An oddball yet well-rounded blend of turned earth, warm nutmeg, banana, whipped cream, rich dry cocoa, and just a hint of cherry on top.

Loyalty (Pearl)
Creamy, tart, with a bit of sweet. Fresh coconut milk, white currant, lemon peel, and an undernote of ozone.

Magic (Lion)
The comforting depth and warmth of roasted pecans, mellowed and fluffed with marshmallow creme.

Cookie Cat
A chocolate cookie ice cream sandwich. He's super duper yummy!

Great Duos of Horror

Whether united by love, conflict, tension, danger, or just plain folie a deux, so many great dark or horrific films are centered on a special dynamic between two people. This series seeks to celebrate these pairs, with a mix of genders, subgenres, and levels of film notoriety.

Clarice & Hannibal

Barely restrained (and nearly fatal) attraction: Black tea, honey, orange, lavender, pine, rosemary, sage

(Inspiration: Silence of the Lambs. From the moment they meet, we sense an ephemeral connection, a unique meeting of minds. There is tension, terror, respect - and maybe even love? Or maybe just the love of a cat for a mouse...)

Columbia & Eddie

The love your mother always warned you about: Leather, saffron, and spiked cherry soda

(Inspiration: The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Rock and roll, insanity, motorcycles and saxaphone! These two dance while the world crumbles around them, right in the shadow of their mentor and lover - and now adversary, Frank-N-Furter)

Gomez & Morticia

Elegant, macabre, undying love: Thyme, oak, rich soil, syrupy Bourbon vanilla, salt, & amber

(Inspiration: The Addams Family. Can we think of a more mutually respectful, loving, romantic yet practical relationship in all of film history? Truly, these two are the Platonic ideal of marriage)

John & Miriam

Tainted love: Mandarin, jasmine, the rosin & wood of a well-loved violin, ragged linens & a cedar box

(Inspiration: The Hunger. A relationship based on a lie of immortality, a betrayal so deep that it turns love to hate. Passion, fury, and lust entwine down through the ages until they reach a bitter, brutal end)

Minnie & Roman

A sinister yet wholesome love: Bittersweet chocolate mousse, woodsmoke, brimstone, and... tannis root?

(Inspiration: Rosemary's Baby. We all know the nosy neighbors are up to no good, but the Castavets take the cake for fulfilling the role, for sure! We adore their gleefully evil and perfectly orchestrated union)

Dracula & Mina

Ancient hunger, cursed love: Brown sugar, dark musk, blackberry, pecan, chrysanthemum, dry red wine

(Inspiration: Bram Stoker’s Dracula. A perfect blend of romance and terror - a woman trapped in a powerless life, compelled to seek her own doom by an immortal, endlessly lonely monster who worships her)

Herman & Lily

Undying domestic bliss: Vanilla, cranberry, cinnamon, carnation, apple, lily, clove, freshly turned earth

(Inspiration: The Munsters. Our favorite working class couple! Herman digs graves to pay the bills, while Lily keeps their lair perfectly dusty - not a cobweb out of place! And although they both pretend he runs the show, we know she’s the brains of the operation)

Helen & Madeline

Beauty at all costs: Ginger, grapefruit, lime, rhubarb, peach, mint & cardamom

(Inspiration: Death Becomes Her. Hell hath no fury like two women scorned! The ultimate catty, selfish, vain frenemies, we nevertheless can’t help but root for this duo!)

Irena & Oliver

Passion that can’t be caged: Sweet tobacco leaf, geranium, copal resin, molasses, sandalwood

(Inspiration: Cat People. A classic tale of gender norms gone wrong: a man captivated by an alluring, powerful woman, obsessed with taming and controlling her at all costs, despite all the warnings)

Trick or Treats

An assortment of sticky sweet autumnal confections, suitable for any ghastly gathering of ghouls, convocation of crones, or Monster Mash meetup!

Butterscotch Brittle: Heady butterscotch, crystallized sugar, vanilla, and a hint of chocolate.

Strawberry Chew: Sweet strawberry flavored nougat candy!

Theme Park Nostalgia

A tribute to some of my times spent as a child, when my dad worked near Anaheim, CA for a few months and I got to go to the theme park as often as I wanted!

JUNGLE BOAT CRUISE ON REPEAT
All things jungle, tropical, and nostalgic. Tart and sweet passion fruit & guava, on an earthy bed of ginger & soil, brightened with agave, chrysanthemum, and lush wet green plants.
(Imagine that you turn the corner at the end of the ride, and there is *no one* waiting at the dock! Imagine if the guide asks you if you want to go on your favorite ride again! And again!)
