Petals of ease
Softness as resistance
Still we bloom

A reminder:

Let softness be the strength 🕯️✨

Inspired by sun-warmed stillness and late spring light, this altar honors the quiet courage of staying open 🌞

Exiting Mardi Gras and easing into lent and the year of the horse feels like welcoming the true new year. Rather than sacrificing or punishing toward self improvement, we’re carrying the sweetness of carnival and the budding spring with us as an invitation to nestle deeply into what feels most true & nourishing. So, while the loud party is over, we’re still welcoming all life has to offer with open arms and hearts. Rituals as sustenance and selfcare as divine commune with self and source, just as nature intended and shows us in this season 🌸🐝🍯

For my costume this year I took inspiration from how fractured life feels—both collectively in this particular timeline, but also personally. In this season of life running 2 businesses and parenting an active toddler the demands feel like they fracture my time and energy like grains of sand in the wind. Tinsel felt like the perfect material to use to embody this disjointed season.

In another example of my time fractured into a million pieces so was my capacity to costume. While I had the concept weeks ago, it came down to crafting it in one day, and the imperfections and lack of detail show. But the beauty of the fracture is there really is no choice but to embrace and allow the chaos to swirl around. We can’t hold onto any of it.

This theme manifested in a strange and disjointed Mardi Gras weekend for me. But like the mischievous diva she is, Mardi Gras day delivered me exactly what I needed and as my poorly-built tinsel costume shed and disintegrated throughout the day, so did my suffering, grief, and clinging to what could be and what wasn’t and what may never be again in this season of my life. At its core Mardi Gras is a grief ritual like no other. I feel reborn and forever grateful for the spiritual cracking that comes through on this day without fail.

A couple quotes I like thrown in, including the chorus to the song “Enjoy Yourself (It’s Later Than You Think)” that comes to me in hard times of mothering and came blasting through on WWOZ during my own Mardi Gras meltdown. Wise Trickster energy 💯 until next year to the great mistress of chaos and joy—what an honor and effort it is to worship at this altar 🎭

Ritual is nostalgia on the skin.
An intuitive scent ripe with memory and distant places.

Cinnamon leaf.
Neroli.
Rose.
A deep patchouli dry down that keeps you here.

Blessed Valentine weekend to you all as we transcend into the eros and magic of Mardi Gras here in New Orleans ✨

Romance is not fantasy.
It is presence.

Stand tall.
Roll onto pulse points.
Close your eyes.
Three slow breaths.

If you need support adoring, Ritual will hold you there 🌹

Vintage heart and floral flacons remind us that fragrance has always been an object of intimacy 🫀

I have been collecting bottles since my teens. One could even say the bottles piqued my interest in fragrance before the juice did!

Sharing this sweet ode to the eros of life, festivities of Lupercalia, the pairing of birds, & love of all kinds 🌹🩷

I loved seeing the reminder that joy and love can be powerful forms of resistance in the halftime show. It reminded me how we live that truth every Mardi Gras here in New Orleans: joy as resistance is our tradition, love for community is at the core of our celebration. As we head into I’m reminded that these truths are what makes this season so deeply important to me. Photo by the 🐐 💜💚💛

Inside the body,
the lungs branch like trees 🌿

Delicate passageways reaching outward,
gathering air the way leaves gather light.

We do not breathe alone - each inhale is a quiet
collaboration with the green world.

To care for the breath:
Alive with citrus, and fresh blooming jasmine,
is to remember our kinship with forests.

Opening the airways.
Softening the body.
Returning us to the living architecture within

If you need support breathing, Smoke will hold you there 🌬️

13 years ago I launched Smoke with our single namesake scent with the cult following of vetiver, citrus, and jasmine 🤍

I had no business plan or thought beyond just thinking it was an interesting creative project to launch this single scent in a hand-milled wooden prism

I couldn’t have imagined that 13 years later I’d still be shepherding this aquarian business that has moved through every version of me—Including my most vulnerable season yet of early motherhood. This past year I stripped things down. I clarified what matters. I found my way deeper into my own authentic truth, and likewise into the core of who Smoke is all these years later.

While there’s inevitable grief in reflecting on the past, there’s a remembrance too.

Smoke has always been about breath.
About returning to the body when the world asks too much.
About care that is daily, tangible, and rooted in love for this planet.

Smoke is more alive than ever, and also an ancestor now.
It listens. It remembers. It stays.

To honor 13 years of Smoke,
we’re holding a birthday giveaway all month long, inviting you into deeper connection through our email newsletter 🌿

Smoke is an ancestor scent. 🌬️

The first breath.
The one that remembers.

Citrus to awaken the lungs.
Green florals to ground the body.
Resin to keep you here.
Birds chirping amongst the frost.

Grounding. Uplifting. Sensual.

This Digital Altar is an invitation to breathe
before engaging, to arrive before responding.

If you need support breathing, Smoke will hold you there. ✨

Devotion as rage. rest. resistance. abolition. dreaming. creation. care.

We believe scent can anchor us back into the body when grief, sorrow, unrest overwhelms the body, and we feel like Night Cloud is the perfect scent for this moment 💜🕯️
