Bamboo Forest Scented Candle
Description
Mood — Relaxation
Inspired by Korean bamboo salt (jukyeom).
Korean monks once faced a question: how do you refine salt? Their answer was to pack it into bamboo stalks and fire it in a pine-wood kiln, raising the heat in stages. What came out of that fire was bamboo salt. Depending on its intended use, it is roasted anywhere from one to nine times — care and time layered into a salt that carries the Korean spirit.
Bamboo Forest begins in that spirit. A bamboo forest just after the rain. Wet earth, wet grass, air still holding the dew — this candle carries that scene.
It opens with basil and spearmint, moves through sage, coriander, and immortelle, and settles into sandalwood, tonka, and amber. Designed to help you unwind.
Perfumer — Christophe Laudamiel. Fragrance as design, culture, and chemistry together. His signature method: Air Sculpture®. To him, a scent is a sculpture — a form carved into the air. For this collection, he studied the air of a bamboo forest after rain closely, carrying that moment into the scent.

Bamboo Forest
The Bamboo Forest Collection is inspired by the enduring therapeutic qualities of bamboo salt. Made from sea salt packed and roasted in bamboo stems at very high temperatures for up to three years (depositing rich magnesium), bamboo salt is known for its purifying and healing properties.
Beginning in Korean monasteries centuries ago, therapeutic rituals for skin are still performed with bamboo salt today to rebalance the body's energy and call in the frequency of transformation.
Master perfumer Christophe Laudamiel developed our Bamboo Forest fragrance to recreate this olfactory experience for our detoxifying bath ritual and environment-cleansing candle. Proceeds from our Bamboo Forest Collection support One Tree Planted, to preserve the forests where these practices originate.
