Burn when
– During late summer brunches with open windows and no dress code

– When the music’s soft, your knees are dirty, and your lemonade has a little vodka in it
This candle is not about subtlety. No. 17 Vine & Vibe is bold, juicy, and wildly alive—an homage to high summer when the garden is overflowing and the dog keeps sneaking into the tomato patch.
It opens with a burst of green tomato leaf, crisp cucumber, and lemon peel—sharp, tart, and almost drinkable. Think garden party, but with dirty knees and a hand-rolled cigarette tucked behind your ear. Basil softens the edges, bringing in that sun-warmed herbal calm. Then the scent deepens: dry garden soil, oakmoss, patchouli, and a quiet hint of vetiver, grounding everything in a rich, earthy base.
Green, yes—but crisp and juicy, like cutting into something that was picked an hour ago. You’re barefoot in a garden with no cell signal and no shoes and no need to perform for anyone. And somewhere just out of view: a dog nose-deep in tomato plants, tail wagging, dirt on his paws. Because no one’s ever actually alone in a garden. Time is irrelevant, yet these moments imprint of you and your kindred best friend.
It’s that perfect high-summer feeling.
Scent Family: Green / Aromatic with Earthy undertones
-
Primary family:
Green – because of the dominant notes of tomato leaf, cucumber, and green leaves. It’s fresh, sharp, vegetal, and very much alive.
-
Secondary influences:
Aromatic – from the basil and lemon peel, which bring a fresh herbal-citrus brightness.
Earthy/Woody – thanks to the patchouli, moss, and dry earth notes in the base, which give it grounding and longevity.
It's a sophisticated, garden-driven fragrances that feel clean, tactile, and slightly wild.
