kanekalon
Flyanna Boss has spent this summer running through different offices, restaurants, and tourists spots with their hit "You Wish." While most know the minute of the song from the viral TikTok trend, all the lyrics are filled with a braggadocio energy making it the perfect summer bop. This candle is an ode to all the things member Folayan claims to be made of. A smooth opening of cinnamon a citrus sprints to the middle notes of clove and coconut all while swimming in the base of vanilla, sandalwood, and musk.

the jaguar
A jaguar sneaks up on you, just like the notes on this album and in the candle. The top notes, citrus and saffron, like the feature from Lucky Daye, gives a striking opening that leads into the emotionally rich album represented through the lush spices of the middle notes. Throughout the album, the listener experiences a well-studied, well-crafted velvety sound that draws reference to the R&B and hip-hop classics, from songs to artists. Likewise, the candle has the classic bottom notes of tonka, vanilla, and cedar in the background, giving a finish as luscious as the album’s final track.
heaven scent
This candle, meant to be complimentary with the jaguar, contains similar scents, with a distinction for a leading single. An opening as noticeable as the baseline in the track flowing into a bold, sweet woody middle notes, reminiscent of the horns in the song. Both top and middle notes blend with the bottom notes the way Victoria’s silky vocals and illustrious interpolation meld with the Chalie Boy sample. This is the candle you burn when you’re feeling yourself, when you know you’re the one, when you’re heaven sent.
Please note the 9oz candle will come in a clear jar with a white label and gold lid.

VII
After Lemonade, the world waited for what Beyoncé would do next, what would the next album be? While she gave us two albums (one collaborative and one a soundtrack), the question loomed: what would be the next studio album after the release of Break my Soul. Enter VII: an ode to Black nightlife, from house to ballroom to disco. Filled with lush samples and interpolations from Black artists, this album goes beyond anything anyone could have imagined. VII pays tribute to the living legend that is Beyoncé with top notes of lavender blended with a juicy berry, a vibrant middle of mahogany, sage and mint, and an expressive base of sugar and cypress.
