~ Koa Wood ~

Endemic to the Hawaiian Islands, acacia koa wood symbolizes integrity and strength. It is chatoyant honey gold and deep bronze when polished to perfection. The wood has little to no characteristic scent of its own, but our interpretation of its natural beauty is blackstrap molasses, lavish mahogany, light blonde amber, and a splash of effervescent ginger. Wear this dark, sumptuous blend for grounding, harmonizing, and re-balancing your energy. It is particularly supportive when you need to stay strong in challenging times.



~ Honu ~

The folklore of the Green Sea Turtle describes her as a benevolent protector with a particular love of children. She is a guide for the lost and an omen of good fortune. Coastline sage, white rice, and sunlit tide pools where the seaweed sways beneath crystal clear water. Wear this light green aquatic scent when you feel astray and alone. Anoint light blue candles in rituals for clarity and peace of mind.



~ Mahalo ~

The Hawaiian word for "Thank You." Smokey-sweet brown sugar glazed pineapple, grilled over an open flame. This delicious blend supports gratitude, perspective, and a wide-angle lens on the world. Wear it to reclaim your joy when pessimism threatens to cloud your mind.



~ Green Flash ~

This elusive sunset phenomenon starts out as neon-bright kiwi lime juiciness, then settles into a crisp aquatic blend of green tea, cucumber, aloe vera, and the unearthly glow of marine phosphorescence. Wear this refreshing scent for a boost of vitality and vigor. It's a powerful ally against brain fog and fatigue.





~ Running the Torches ~

An evening ritual to illuminate the coastline before the fall of night. Blood orange and smokey red ginger, smoldering amber, myrrh, and dragon's blood resins with one dark drop of elderberry cordial. Wear this scintillating scent to prepare for nighttime rituals. Anoint red candles for workings of love and passion.



~ Waimea Mist ~

Cool mountain springs run through hillside pastures as you head inland, toward the island's heart. Lilikoi nectar, soft meadow grasses, gentle rain water, and a wildflower breeze lifting white cotton curtains. Wear this peaceful blend to dissolve anxiety, soothe your spirit, and ease your mind. It is particularly helpful during meditation or just winding down for the night.



~ Waipio Valley ~

The Valley of the Kings is adorned with towering waterfalls, a crescent black sand beach, and a palpable primal energy. This sacred space has survived two tsunamis without a single casualty. Dark myrrh and vetiver, sand-smoothed teak wood, kava kava, rain-drenched ti leaves, and a subtle touch of dry coconut husk. Wear this mysterious scent to wrap yourself in fiercely loving protection. Anoint black candles to ward off malicious energy and restore a sense of security.



~ Manta Ray ~

Fathomless blue grace under moonlit waves. Iced blueberry tea, cold salt water, and bubbles glistening through ambergris accord. Wear this dark aquatic scent to connect with your deep intuitive voice. It is particularly helpful during dreamwork and divination.



~ Plumeria Lei ~

A traditional greeting in the Hawaiian Islands is to place the lei briefly over one's own head, then drape it over the shoulders of the guest. The Islands' most abundant bloom symbolizes new beginnings, love, and all that is good in life. Our plumeria accord is a delicate bouquet of osmanthus, peony, lime blossom, and tuberose lifted by subtle glimmers of Asian pear and sugared lemon. Wear this uplifting scent to brighten your mood and banish malaise.



~ Mauna Kea ~

The snow-capped domain of the sky father, Wakea and modern-day passage to the stars. This summit attracts astronomers from around the world, as its observatories are second to none. Glacial mountain air, bitter almond spiked with rosemary, white vanilla orchid, frozen coconut, and starlight. Wear this bracing blend to sharpen your senses and hone your powers of perception. Some of our latest fragrances will also be available as scented soy candles. Arcana Wildcraft's "Coast of Cascadia"



From Julia at Arcana:



The final collection of Arcana's summer season is here. Cascadian Mermaid is new and contains my sweet and citrusy sativa 'dabs' accord. I also added Black Sand because it didn't have a home in any other collection and with no shortage of black sand here in Cascadia, it just made sense. So without further ado...



Sand in Your Tail: Summer nights are fun while they last. Musky black vanilla beans and sultry orange blossoms with smoky tree resin, ambergris, pink pepper, tabac, and rich incense.



Echolocation: How whales find one other. Ambergris and amber resin with ruby grapefruit, sweet guava, saltwater, vanilla pods, and the merest hints of patchouli and vetiver.



Sea Glass: Gifts from the sea. A delicate blend of violet petals, bee balm, translucent honey, neroli, tuberose, narcissus, and skin musk.



Yurt: The scent of sleeping in a rustic yurt surrounded by old growth forests. Glowing dragonsblood resin and cedarwood with hemlock, fir needle, juniper, and bonfire smoke.



Goofy Foot: An ode to surf culture. Fresh coconut and cardamom with green notes of spearmint, fresh basil, and one drop of vetiver grass.



Nacre: The pearlescent sheen found inside certain shells. A mix of the prettiest vanilla with a plenitude of tropical white blossoms, pearl musk, a tiny hint of pineapple, and a quick squeeze of lime.



Pink Saltwater Taffy: A candy pink blend of cherry, sugarberry, black and gold raspberry, vanilla fondant, white sugar, and a grounding touch of patchouli.



Surfers on Acid: Based on the deliciously beachy (and rather wicked) cocktail, with sweet coconut milk, pineapple, and absinthe.



Black Sand: Atmospheric sweetness with a hint of salt air and a subtle undercurrent of danger. The richest amber resin, black coconut, coconut husks, and smoky vetiver.



Cascadian Mermaid: The scent of a dank mermaid in the Pacific Northwest. Cannabis concentrate accord, uplifting grapefruit, cotton candy, Moroccan blue chamomile, vanilla-laced sugar cane, warm rain, wild-harvested spruce tips, and shimmery mermaid musk. We also have two new additions to our Arcana Wildcraft classics selection:



Mutiny: Tyrants be damned! The scent of discontent, broken ranks, and open

rebellion on the sea. Indonesian patchouli combines with black pepper,

dark wood, and a smoky haze of gunpowder.



Phoebus: The ancient Greek personification of the sun. Smoked vanilla,

sweet resins, red musk, marshmallow, and fiery woodsmoke. The Critters collction will be coming down on August 1st. Get your Little Brown Rabbit, White-Tailed Deer, Robin's Egg, and all the Squirrels before they scurry away! Shop the NCD Last Chance page for items that will be leaving the site soon.
