🍂 Fall, the Louisiana way. 🍂

Meet Heirloom Harvest — our slightly strange love letter to autumn in Louisiana. Warm spiced c***r and ripe fig meet sweet potato, squash blossom, black pepper, and earthy oakmoss for a fall scent that goes way beyond pumpkin spice.

Think heirloom gourds on the porch, purple crepe myrtles still blooming, something warm in the kitchen, and everybody waiting on that first cool Louisiana front. 💜🍂

Scent Notes:
🍎 Spiced C***r
🍠 Sweet Potato
🌿 Fig + Squash Blossom
🖤 Black Pepper
🌳 Oakmoss + Warm Woods

Hand-poured in New Orleans with our premium CocoSoy wax blend.
