Petaluma holds a special place in our family’s story.

It’s where we met our long-awaited pup, Mookie. A town filled with blooming flowers, rolling greenery, and small-town charm that feels both vibrant and welcoming.

There’s an ease to it. Color. Character. A sense of warmth that lingers long after you leave.

That feeling inspired PETALUMA — expressive, joyful, and unforgettable. A fragrance designed to feel full of life while remaining beautifully composed.

APOLENA [sea salt]

key notes: sea salt, sage, ambrette seed

Our favorite mild fragrance showcases the beautiful complexities of sea notes. Composed of sea salt, sage, and ambrette seed, it evokes feelings of freedom and pleasure, like an enjoyable walk along Balboa Island on a beautiful summer morning.

COLONY [cassis]

key notes: cassis, bergamot, musk

Create a welcoming mood with this warm and sophisticated scent that begins with bergamot and cassis, developed over a white rose and musk. Perfect for a cocktail hour with friends or while relaxing with your favorite book (or social media site:)

GROVE [orange blossom]

key notes: orange blossom, jasmine, bergamot

Transport yourself to a grove of orange trees, with their tiny white flowers in bloom. This light but strong scent will take you there.

HARRIETS TREE [grapefruit]

key notes: grapefruit, peach, berries

A vibrant citrus fragrance that illustrates invigorating notes of tropical fruits, crisp citrus, and exotic greens. It is light and sweet, while still noticeable in your surrounding space.

JACK [pumpkin]

key notes: pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla

A sophisticated fall fragrance with top notes of cinnamon and vanilla which intermingle with baked pumpkin, while graham cracker base notes add a creamy, toasty character. An ode to special times together as we begin the holiday season carving pumpkins into Jack-o'-lanterns.

LIDO [sandalwood]

key notes: sandalwood, musk, violet

This bestselling scent is warm and comforting, highlighting its creamy facets while balancing the sharpness of sandalwood paired with sweet violet and woodsy musk. Perfect for any occasion and any time of year.

LITTLE BRANCH [amber]

key notes: amber, sage, oakmoss

This captivating fragrance begins with hints of citrus and an infusion of sage that enhance the natural, earthy quality. Lavender adds a soft floral and herbal touch to the heart of this scent, while amber and oakmoss round out the base for a beautiful, deep character.

MARGARET [currant]

key notes: currant, musk, rhubarb

A sophisticated and playfully sweet scent with aspects of pink currant and rhubarb over a heart of white jasmine petals and musky base. A wonderful balance of notes will light up the room for any occasion.

MR. DOUGLAS [pine]

key notes: pine, cedarwood, fir

Our popular pine scented candle that makes you think “Christmas time”, with mild citrus top notes, earthy undercurrents of cedar and evergreen, and a woody, fir base. But for some, the scent of pine is a year-round fav, like taking a hike on your favorite pine tree lined trail.

PETALUMA [berry]

key notes: berry, pink peppercorn, rose petals

The tangy richness of freshly picked blackcurrant berries and lively accents of flowery rose petals create this light, floral, and feminine scent.

Smells so good!

Wow, these candles are amazing! Not only do they have a sleek, beautiful design that looks stunning in any room, but they smell incredible as well. The scents are luxurious, long-lasting, and fill the space without being overpowering. My favorite is Lido—it has the perfect balance of freshness and sophistication. These candles make my home feel warm, inviting, and elevated. I will definitely be purchasing more and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a high-quality candle that looks as good as it smells.

I'm in love with this candle! It smells romantic, relaxing, and it reminds me so much of my late grandmother. Thank you for the rush of memories that came flooding back in when I first burned it. It burns slow, lasts a long time and the fragrance has never faded. I am going straight to order a replacement now!

Beautiful fragrance

This is hands down the most elegant candle I have ever had! The packaging is classy and the fragrance is beyond amazing. Light, floral, soft and feminine.

Great candle.

I love candles but most of them just smell like burnt candle wax. This one smells fantastic. They are expensive but they actually smell like a scent. I love this candle but wish they were a lot bigger for the price.
