SCENT + PSYCHE
WE STARTED THE WAY A LOT OF GOOD THINGS DO, BY NOTICING SOMETHING COULD BE SO MUCH BETTER.
BEHIND THE NAME
WHO WE ARE
The emotional experience of scent occurs in the right side of the brain, often referred to as the "psyche" [ sahy-kee ]. The psyche, another word for "soul", is the realm of emotion and imagination. When olfactory stimulation engages the total brain, a mental dance begins between feelings, thoughts, associations, and desires.
DESIGNED FOR EVERYDAY
It's not just about how a candle smells, although that is important given our brand. But it's also how it fits into your space, your routines, and the everyday moments.
CURATED FOR YOU
What started as a passion project quickly turned into a deeper focus on getting the details right. Testing wax blends and wicks, dialing in pouring temperatures and curing times. Every detail as been curated.
HIGH QUALITY STANDARDS
Each candle is handcrafted in Minnesota with the highest quality of ingredients.
MEET CHRISTIE
OUR FOUNDER
Christie started Scent + Psyche as a passion project in 2019 because she loved fragrance and candles. The ritual of lighting one at the end of the day, the way scent can quietly shift how a space feels.
But over time, she kept coming back to the same thought. So many candles smelled overly sweet, overly strong, or just artificial. And she wanted something different. Something closer to nature, more layered, more balanced, and something she'd genuinely look forward to burning.
