Flores Lane x David Duchovny: The Sweet Smell of Failure
Life doesn’t always smell like victory. Sometimes it’s bad timing, questionable choices, and the faint stench of “what was I thinking?” We fixed that. A candle for the days when life serves you a big, steaming loaf of disappointment. This scent is so restorative, it scrubs the air clean of regret, bad decisions, and that lingering whiff of failure.
Crafted from a clean-burning soy blend, The Sweet Smell of Failure blends the comforting warmth of honey and vanilla with the crisp, green sharpness of fresh rosemary. Sharp enough to cut through the past, rich enough to remind you there’s still something worth savoring.
Light it when you need to air out the past and start from scratch.
This clean-burning soy wax candle blends the comforting warmth of honey and vanilla with the sharp, green bite of rosemary—a reminder that even in disappointment, there’s sweetness worth savoring.
Because failure should never linger.

Ingredients
Ingredients
WAX:
We purchase RAW materials and create a "proprietary" formula: it's nearly 100% soy wax, with a just touch of beeswax to elongate the burn time and give it a smooth-looking finish. Before burning any candle, make sure the ingredients work with your body.
OIL/RESIN:
The reason we include essential oil is because it’s a plant's vital "essence” where energy is stored but also the most highly concentrated nutritional and therapeutic benefits reside. This contains chemical messengers that transmit information throughout the body like a normal medicine or prescription would do. We like to call them:Plant Friends with Benefits.

it's about the ingredients.
In 2010, I was diagnosed with late stage neurological Lyme disease and was unable to leave the house. One thing that always made me feel better was lighting candles. But upon researching the candle ingredients, I realized that I was burning petroleum, coal, & unknown fragrances..I decided to make my own with healthy ingredients.
