An Ode to Petrichor

Roses, lilacs, petrichor… oh my!

The acquired “taste” of Petrichor is a unique one. We’re slightly obsessed with this scent. So, what exactly is Petrichor, and why is it causing such a buzz in the world of candles?

Petrichor is more than just a word – it’s an experience, a sensation that evokes memories of rainy days, freshly dampened earth, and the promise of new beginnings. The term itself is derived from the Greek words “petra,” meaning stone, and “ichor,” the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology. It was coined by scientists to describe the distinct earthy scent that arises when rain falls on dry soil.

Imagine stepping outside after a summer shower, inhaling deeply as the earth awakens from its slumber. Petrichor captures this moment perfectly, with notes of wet soil, minerals, and ozone mingling together to create a fragrance that’s both grounding and invigorating.

But Petrichor isn’t just reserved for rainy days – it’s a scent that transcends seasons, bringing a sense of renewal and vitality to any space. Whether you’re looking to add a touch of freshness to your home on a sunny day or seeking solace in the midst of a storm, Petrichor is the perfect companion.
