Our line of summerly scented candles and diffusers is inspired by the scents, sights and the spirit of some of the most exciting cities around the world.
Regional and sustainable production
We have developed the scents and design of our products with a lot of time and love and put great emphasis on sustainability in the careful selection of the materials used. The candles and diffusers are handcrafted in Berlin from regionally produced and GMO-free rapeseed wax and vegan base liquid for our diffusers. It is important to us to use sustainable and environmentally friendly materials and high-quality perfume oils from European production, to guarantee a lasting sensual fragrance experience.
CO2 compensation
To minimize our carbon footprint, we support the Berlin Foundation for Nature Conservation (Stiftung Naturschutz) in the renaturation of moorlands. Since the Stiftung Naturschutz is managed by the Berlin Senate, 100% of the donations flow directly in the projects and not in the administration.

The perfume oils
We developed our fragrances with renowned perfume designer Virginia Bonofiglio, who spent decades designing perfumes for large international companies and taught at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York.
After her retirement, the fragrances were further developed by her master student, Helen Feygin.
The fragrance oils are manufactured in Poland and France.
Each fragrance is the result of stays in each city and has been carefully composed after a long series of tests until the result convinced us.
The rapeseed wax
Unlike soy wax, which is often imported from overseas, regionally produced rapeseed wax uses much less water in cultivation and production. The delivery routes are short and no rainforests are cleared for cultivation.
Our Belgian manufacturer processes rapeseed oil from sustainable European farms.
Rapeseed wax has an excellent burning behavior and guarantees an unadulterated fragrance experience.
The wick
The wicks are made of cotton in Germany. They are vegan, unbleached and contain no borax.
The candle jar
We get our thick-walled and elegant shaped glasses from a glass manufacturer in Poland. They are ideal as a lantern holder or as a planter for smaller plants after the candle has burned down.
To clean the jar, place the empty glass in the oven at 60° C for a few minutes. Once the wax residue has melted. wipe the inside of the glass with a paper towel.
The wooden lids
The candle lids and the diffuser caps are made from regional beech wood by a small manufacturer in northern Italy.
When extinguished, the wooden lid protects the wax surface of the candle from dust and keeps the scent in the glass.
When the candle is lit, we recommend to use it as a coaster for the glass.
The tin can
The high-quality printed tin cans are made in northern Italy by one of the last remaining producers in Europe.
Detailed illustrations of buildings and specially developed lettering in matching colors decorate the cans.
They are food safe and are ideal for small storage or as a decorative object.
The diffuser liquid
We mix the perfume oils with a vegan non-toxic base liquid made from vegetable glycerine specially developed for room fragrances.
The diffuser bottle
We get the bottles from a glass factory in the Netherlands. They can be refilled as often as you like using a small funnel. Always ensure that any spilled liquid is wiped off immediately with a paper towel.
The reeds
Our biodegradable diffuser reeds are made from a new fiber material containing corn and sugarcane instead of polyester. The scent trow can be regulated by the number of reeds used. They are more productive than conventional rattan reeds, and won't clog.
The sola flowers
The sola flowers are made of wafer-thin sliced wood of a fast-growing marsh plant from sustainable agriculture. They also absorb the fragrances and release them over a larger area than the sticks and also look very beautiful and elegant.
They are assembled by hand in Berlin Köpenick.
The refill bottle
The beautifully shaped refill bottles are made in a Czech glass factory, the screw caps made of beech wood come from Austria.
Each bottle contains two diffuser refills and comes with a new set of reeds and Sola flowers.
The cardboard boxes
The outer packaging of our products is made in the Black Forest from sustainably managed local wood and is FSC certified (FSC C103942).
The printed products
All print products used are manufactured in Germany and we pay the optional CO2 compensation to the printers.
