Inspired by Frederick Douglass, our "Frederick" candle pays loving tribute to a brave and charismatic man who passionately followed his dream of a world of freedom for all.

A bronze statue commemorating his life as an abolitionist and champion of women’s rights stands tall as the Gateway to Harlem, anchored at the northwest corner of Central Park.

Infused with fruits and botanicals, we’ve re-imagined the orangerie from Douglass’s childhood to include juicy bergamot, yuzu, and fresh green cardamom which sets the stage for a heart of vanilla orchid, cypress, and ginger blossom. A liberating base of suede, sandalwood, and tonka bean add warmth and depth to this elegant and uplifting blend.

Notes:
Top: Bergamot, Smoked Yuzu, Green Cardamom
Middle: Vanilla Orchid, Cypress, Ginger Blossom
Base: Tonka Bean, Suede, Sandalwood

Hannah ★★★★★

The bronze statue detail on the lid immediately caught my eye—it’s such a thoughtful touch that makes the candle feel like a piece of history rather than just decor. The burn’s been even and steady over the last few evenings, which is exactly what I hoped for.

Miles A. ★★★★★

I was genuinely moved by the story behind the bronze statue it’s modeled after, and the candle itself burns surprisingly clean and level. It’s a nice touch that the tribute comes through in both the design and the craft.

Edward D. ★★★★★

The bronze statue base is such a thoughtful touch, and the candle itself burns evenly with a warm glow that fills my whole study. It feels like a piece of history you can actually light up.
