A Slice of Olfactory Heaven

Kara_Y, Jun 2024

I went on a quiet afternoon with my 8-year-old daughter. We had a blast going through all the individual fragrances, selecting our favorites, and then creating our unique blends for our candles. It was an enjoyable experience, the candles smell fantastic, and look lovely. The owner and her staff are friendly and great with kids. And the space is a beautiful, calming oasis in the Printers Row neighborhood. If I still lived in the area, I'd come back to Embers + Apothecary for a birthday party or pre-bridal event. Honestly, if I lived in the area, I'd probably make regular trips to create candles with unique fragrance profiles you can't find in the stores. On this trip, I made a blend that combined a woodsy, smokey base with fresh ground coffee and a hint of sweet pear. My daughter opted for a delicate and sweet blend in a sparkly rainbow container. There's something for everyone. Go check them out!
