Scent Notes
Top Notes (Mandarin, Apricot, Orange Peel):
A bright burst of mandarin, juicy apricot, and zesty orange peel brings a sunlit, citrusy opening full of vibrant energy.
Middle Notes (Sea Salt, Magnolia, Star Jasmine):
Sea salt drifts through soft magnolia and star jasmine, creating a breezy, floral heart that’s both airy and elegant.
Base Notes (Palm Leaves, Elemi, Ocean Moss, Sea Grass):
Grounded in green palm leaves, resinous elemi, ocean moss, and coastal sea grass, the scent settles into a lush, aquatic finish with earthy depth.
Inspiration
A warm, sun-soaked Sunday afternoon in full bloom. Shades of Gold captures the feeling of driving down 30A in Florida, windows down, with the breeze carrying the delicate scent of magnolia trees lining the street. It’s a beautifully balanced blend of bright citrus and soft florals, evoking the carefree feel of long mornings that stretch into the afternoon. Picture yourself strolling home from the seaside farmer’s market, fresh produce in hand, with the sunlight streaming through linen curtains, filling your space with golden warmth.
“Growing up in Florida, I’ve got so many memories of cruising down 30A every summer. I wanted a scent to capture that vibe—sunny, laid-back, and perfect for a slow weekend. The name, inspired by a 311 song, is a nod to the golden tones in the candle… the warmth of the sun, mandarin, apricot, orange peel, and the heart of magnolia. It’s fresh, mellow, and citrusy in the best way.”
