We are SO excited to share today’s post, because the Winter and Holiday collections are officially here! Winter is so special to us here at Sun & Moon, and we love the magic it brings. As nature slows and softens, we turn inward—toward light, connection, and celebration. And our Winter and Holiday collections feature artisanal candles, bodycare, and fragrances inspired by the cozy beauty and joyful sparkle of the season. Whether you’re shopping gift sets for the holidays or curating your own collection of sensory rituals, this season’s fragrances are crafted to make every moment feel purposeful.
The Inspiration Behind the Winter Candle & Fragrance Collection (and the Perfect Gift Sets for the Holidays!)
This Winter’s Vibe: Celebration
A seasonal note from our founder:
Winter invites us to gather close—to savor what is, to honor what was, and to celebrate all that’s yet to come. While nature slumbers under frost and quiet skies, we turn inward toward light, warmth, and tradition. It’s a season of stillness, yes, but also of sparkle. A time to illuminate the darkness with ritual, beauty, and joy.
In the garden, winter marks the completion of a year’s growing cycle, but it’s also the promise of what’s to come. Beneath the surface, life is quietly transforming—resting, preparing, becoming.
Our Winter and Holiday Collection celebrates this sense of renewal and reflection with radiant vessels, layered fragrances, and rich, luminous details that capture the balance of stillness and celebration.
