Citrus Blossom
Orange Peel, Not Orange Candy
The citrus that grows in Florida groves smells different than the citrus oil you find in most skincare. Brighter. Less sweet. More like the actual rind when you tear it with your thumb.

That's the difference. Our Citrus Blossom collection uses real citrus extracts and essential oils—the kind that smell like morning, not like a mall candle aisle. Body butter and scrub made in our Owings Mills lab. Ruby Red Grapefruit and Vanilla+Citrus soy candles poured in-house. Orange Blossom honey from Florida beekeepers who know when to harvest. Lemon lollipops made with cane sugar and honey—sweet, not sour, actually lemon.
The body butter gets used down to nothing. People buy the scrub, then come back for the butter. The Ruby Red Grapefruit candle fills a room without screaming about it. And the Orange Blossom honey? It's the one that makes people stop mid-sip of their tea and ask where you got it.
Most of these products contain honey or beeswax, which makes them vegetarian but not vegan. The citrus oils come from real groves where actual bees pollinate actual trees. That partnership—bees and citrus farmers—is why this collection exists at all.
Made in Maryland
Body butter, body scrub, and soy candles made in our Owings Mills facility. The Vitamin Bee® Day Cream gets made here too—small batches with citrus oil and real vitamin E.
Citrus That Smells Right
Not the fake-bright citrus from synthetic fragrance. We use essential oils and extracts that smell like the rind, the blossom, the tree. Bergamot in the body scrub. Grapefruit in the candles. Orange in the honey.
Honeybee Partnership
Citrus groves need honeybees to produce fruit. Beekeepers need citrus groves to make orange blossom honey. Our Florida Orange Blossom honey comes from this exact partnership—thick, golden, floral without being cloying.
Soy Wax Candles
Ruby Red Grapefruit and Vanilla+Citrus candles use natural soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oil. Burns cleaner than paraffin. No petroleum. No black soot on your ceiling. Just citrus scent that fills the room.
Year-Round Citrus
Citrus season runs winter through early spring, but these products work in July. The body butter doesn't feel heavy in summer. The candles smell good in February when you need to remember what sunshine feels like.
If you like body care, start with the Citrus Blossom Body Butter—it's the one people finish fastest. If you want home fragrance, the Ruby Red Grapefruit candle is sharp and bright without being overly sweet. For pantry, the Orange Blossom honey tastes like actual orange blossoms, not just regular honey with citrus added.
Somewhere in the middle. The body butter leaves a scent on your skin that lasts a few hours but doesn't walk into the room before you do. The candles fill a room without overpowering it. The scrub smells strongest in the shower, then fades to something softer.
Orange Blossom honey comes from bees working citrus groves in Florida. It's lighter in color than wildflower honey, with a floral taste that's distinctly citrus without being acidic. Thicker texture than some varietals. Works well in tea or on its own.
The body butter and scrub are made with organic ingredients where possible—shea butter, coconut oil, citrus essential oils. The candles use soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oils. We're honest about what's in everything. Check individual product pages for full ingredient lists.
The Citrus Blossom Body Butter is formulated for body use—it's richer than face products. For facial care with citrus, try the Vitamin Bee® Day Cream, which has citrus oil in a lighter base designed for face skin.
The 6oz Jelly Jar candles (Ruby Red Grapefruit, Vanilla+Citrus, Sage+Pomegranate) burn approximately 30 hours. The Luxe candles burn 75 hours. Actual burn time depends on how you trim the wick and how long you let them burn per session.
The Citrus Blossom Body Butter and Body Scrub contain beeswax, making them vegetarian but not vegan. Most products in our self-care line include honey or beeswax—it's part of our beekeeping roots. Individual product pages list full ingredients.
