Jungle Bloom

Step into a lush, tropical paradise with the evocative scent of Jungle Bloom. This exotic fragrance opens with invigorating top notes of fresh jungle air accord, tangy bergamot, and the green freshness of palm leaf, complemented by the cool crispness of cucumber and the sweet juiciness of Anjou pear.

As the scent develops, the heart notes transport you deeper into the tropical landscape. The delicate sweetness of water lily mingles with the heady aroma of frangipani blossoms, creating an enchanting floral bouquet. This is enriched by the fresh, woody scent of green bamboo and the subtle warmth of mango wood, evoking the dense, verdant foliage and sun-kissed trunks of tropical trees.

The fragrance journey concludes with a rich, earthy base. Notes of lichen bring a touch of the forest floor, while creamy sandalwood and sweet vanilla add warmth and depth. Vetiver’s smoky, grassy nuances ground the scent, making it feel both luxurious and comforting.

Available in two sizes—the 6.5-ounce Classic and the 15.5-ounce Signature—Jungle Bloom is perfect for creating a serene atmosphere in any space. For a continuous tropical escape, it also comes as a fragrance refill for the Pura Smart Diffuser, allowing you to experience this lush aroma in a modern and convenient way.

Labdanum

Encased in a stunning marbled amber glass vessel, Labdanum offers a luxurious olfactory experience that embodies the depth and warmth of the forest understory. This sophisticated scent begins with an inviting blend of cistus and a delicate floral accord, which softly introduces the earthy, resinous essence of labdanum absolute.

As the fragrance evolves, the heart of the candle reveals a captivating mix of amber and musk, creating a warm, resinous body that is both comforting and mysterious. The smoky, sweet undertones of patchouli add an exotic, earthy dimension, while a subtle hint of vanilla provides a creamy, soothing balance, perfecting this complex blend.

Ideal for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, Labdanum is perfect for moments of introspection and relaxation, offering a timeless connection to the natural world.

Amber Black Vanilla

Imagine stepping into a grand foyer, the warm glow of golden chandeliers reflecting off polished oak floors. The air is filled with a symphony of rich and inviting aromas, welcoming you with a warm embrace. This is the essence captured by Amber Black Vanilla—a scent that transports you to an opulent evening soiree, where sophistication meets comfort.

The fragrance opens with an invigorating splash of black currant, intertwined with the zesty brightness of lemon and the sweet tartness of raspberry. These top notes are like the first sip of a fine aperitif, awakening the senses and setting the stage for an unforgettable experience. As you move deeper into this olfactory journey, the heart reveals a lush bouquet of gardenia and jasmine.

But it’s the base notes where the magic truly unfolds. As the evening progresses, the room fills with the creamy sweetness of vanilla, accentuated by the earthy, mysterious tones of patchouli. Amber adds a resinous depth, while a hint of musk provides a whisper of sensuality.

Housed in a hand-blown glass vessel with a subtle amber hue, this candle not only diffuses a luxurious scent but also serves as an elegant piece of décor.

Timur Pepper

Journey into the heart of the Himalayas with Timur Pepper, a fragrance that pays homage to Nepal’s cherished spice and the courageous women who harvest it. This unique scent is a sophisticated dance of contrasts, bringing together spicy, smoky, and sweet notes in a harmonious blend. It opens with a lively burst of sparkling mandarin, mingling with the piquant warmth of Timur pepper—a citrusy spice with undertones of grapefruit and orange flower. The addition of pink pepper and coriander adds a further layer of complexity, creating a vibrant and aromatic introduction.

As the scent settles, the middle notes reveal a delicate bouquet of jasmine petals and the distinctive, slightly sweet aroma of geranium bourbon. However, the foundation of Timur Pepper is grounded in rich, earthy base notes. The smokiness of patchouli, with its creamy chocolate undertones, is complemented by the deep, woody scent of fir balsam. Vetiver and amber further enrich the blend, adding a warm, resinous finish that lingers gently on the senses.

Beyond its olfactory pleasures, Timur Pepper supports a humanitarian initiative: LAFCO’s longstanding partnership with prestigious fragrance supplier, Mane,  funds a local women’s education program and provides access to clean drinking water in Nepal. This ethical and fair-trade practice not only brings exquisite fragrance into your home but also contributes to a greater good.

Andean Myrtle

At the heart of this scent lies the exotic Andean myrtle, a rare and sacred herb cherished by the indigenous Quechua people. With its herbal and resinous notes, it evokes the verdant valleys and the ancient wisdom of the region. The fragrance is further enriched by the sweet, woody spice of Schinus molle, also known as pink peppercorn, which adds a subtle yet distinctive twist, harmonizing beautifully with the fresh citrus top notes.

The fragrance concludes with a grounding base of earthy palo santo and green moss. Palo santo, revered for its purifying properties, brings a mystical and woody depth, while green moss adds a vibrant, damp forest-floor freshness. Together, these elements create a scent profile that is both soothing and invigorating, reminiscent of a spiritual journey through the lush, sacred landscapes of the Andes.

Andean Myrtle is part of LAFCO’s Source & Story Collection, housed in a hand-blown olive green glass vessel that reflects the natural beauty and richness of the fragrance. Each vessel is a unique creation, perfect for repurposing as a decorative piece after the candle has burned down.

Available in the generous 15.5-ounce Signature size, this candle not only offers an exquisite scent but also supports sustainable and ethical practices. Through a partnership with Cosmo International Fragrances, LAFCO contributes to local initiatives that provide seedlings and harvesting education to Quechua farmers, promoting biodiversity and sustainable livelihoods.

This candle opens with a burst of fruity freshness, featuring top notes of rich blackcurrant, zesty bergamot, and a hint of aromatic cardamom. As the fragrance develops, the heart reveals the lush, green aroma of Paradiso fig, a cherished Italian variety known for its vibrant green skin and luscious red pulp. The fig’s natural sweetness is complemented by crisp apple and the delicate, tropical floral notes of frangipani.

The scent settles into a warm and comforting base, where the creamy sweetness of peach intertwines with the earthy, woody depth of cedar. This grounding layer adds a lasting impression of warmth and sophistication, balancing the fruity top and heart notes with a soothing finish. The overall effect is a harmonious blend of juicy and woody aromas that transport you to a peaceful countryside retreat.
