SMELLS LIKE: You know your self-worth. Notes of Eucalyptus, peppermint & a hint of citrus.

You can love me, but leave me wild. I’m a free spirit with messy hair and a beautiful mind…a sweet, smart mouth with a heart of gold. There’s magic in my bones and sparkles in my soul.

This blend inspires you to celebrate your self-worth

No apology for who you are, or what you bring to the table. No need to ask if the world gets it, approves, or agrees with you. You are who you are, you love what you love. You weren’t meant to be caged, contained, or to conform into some inauthentic version of yourself. You were born free; a wild-thing...untamed and true. If others don’t love you for that, those are not your people.
