BOHÉME STORY

"Bohéme started with a dream. What if we could create artisanal candles to evoke memories of our most cherished adventures in life? We knew we wanted our candles to be made by hand in small batches, and to ensure that they were sustainable and phthalate-free. We knew that we wanted to use only the finest quality ingredients, such as custom-crafted oils, cotton wicks, and all natural wax. And we knew that we wanted to partner with a world-renowned boutique fragrance house to bring our vision to life. 

From the luxurious colored glass vessels to the carefully detailed packaging, every element reflects the distinctive spirit of a singular location, making these beautiful, expressive candles equally perfect to gift or display. The elegant logo mark uses fluid lines to reflect the timeless spirit of the Bohéme Woman while drawing in the viewer’s eye. This is echoed in the design of our emblem — a dynamic icon that evokes an exotic view of a unique locale, further reinforcing the sense of stylish and sublime adventure that drives our story."

NASH AND JONES STORY

The Nash and Jones line began out of necessity. Our reactions to products filled with chemicals, dyes, perfumes and preservatives were awful so we adopted a more natural lifestyle. This included changes to what we consumed on the inside plus the outside. It was a revelation to discover that we didn’t have to settle for the big box selection but rather we could have complete control of what we consume. What we learned about the ingredients we had been using was shocking. We are appalled by what we were putting on/into our bodies through our skin. After all, what we put onto our skin also gets absorbed into the body. Those dyes, chemicals, petroleum and perfumes were damaging our skin and our health plus cancelled out the benefits of the good ingredients. Our passion for consuming only clean ingredients led us to craft products to nourish our skin rooted in the amazing benefits of organic oils, butters and beeswax. Our skin produces oils to hydrate and aid our skin’s healthy cell life cycle, so our products employ the highest quality, non-comedogenic oils and complimentary natural ingredients to nourish skin, encourage cell regeneration and keep pores clean & bright.
