This scent is a heartfelt tribute to home, being surrounded by family around a shared meal, where everything feels warm, familiar, and full of love. Deeply nostalgic, it captures those comforting everyday moments that stay with us. At the heart of many Asian households, rice is a symbol of togetherness, and this candle reflects that beautifully. It smells like steaming, freshly cooked jasmine rice. It’s soft, warm, and comforting, just like a home-cooked meal and the feeling of home itself.

Hand-poured using a premium natural coconut soy wax blend for a cleaner, longer burn.
Crafted with zinc-free cotton wicks
Reusable glass jars/ tin can
Original label artwork designed in-house. 
QR code on the label that takes you to the story behind the scent and the artwork.
