Hinoki Grove Candle - cypress, hinoki bark, vetiver
Top: lemon, wild cypress, clove
Middle: hinoki bark, black pepper
Base: guaiacwood resin, vetiver
Woody, warm, and grounding, Hinoki Grove is inspired by the tranquil beauty of the hinoki cypress, a highly valued conifer native to Japan and newly planted throughout the Portland Japanese Garden’s Tea Garden. Valued for its rich green color and aromatic lemon-scented wood, hinoki has been part of Japanese garden design for centuries, bringing a sense of calm and reflection.
This fragrance layers lemon, clove, and wild cypress with the depth of hinoki bark, smoked birch, and guaiacwood. Subtle notes of black pepper and vetiver round it out, creating a scent that is earthy, slightly peppery, and warmly meditative.
Hinoki Grove is a candle about the trees themselves — wise, ancient, aromatic, and enduring. Light it to bring the grounding stillness of a forest grove into your home.
