Fragrance & candle goods · Since 2015
Fragrance, candlelight, and stories gathered from the Pacific Northwest.

Sour cherry · Saffron · Woodsmoke
A campfire at the edge of a cherry orchard: sour cherry, warm smoke, and something you can’t quite place. Bright sour cherry darkens into saffron and warm florals, then a soft curl of woodsmoke. The perfume our guests hace returned for, year after year.

Last call · Retiring from the lineup
These scents have been burned, sprayed, gifted and so well loved in homes all over the country, and honestly, we'll miss them too. As Great Northern grows into a more focused, atmospheric fragrance house rooted in the Pacific Northwest, we're retiring them to make room for what's next. When the clock runs out, they leave the everyday lineup.
Gone Oct 26 at 4:31 pm PTAfter that, these scents leave the everyday lineup.
We know some of these are huge customer favorites, and that's exactly why this is hard. Retiring a scent isn't a verdict on it. Some of these may come back seasonally as limited pop-ups, but we can't promise when, so if one of them is yours, stock up now.

Five quick questions. We'll match you with a perfume or candle.
Fragrance shifts with your mood. Pick who you are becoming, and we will find the scent to match.
A small town in Nightshade County, Washington. Every candle in the collection is a place in the story. One door is already open. The rest of the town unlocks on October 31.
"Mara unlocked the Towne Pump before the dawn light could touch the pavement. This early hour was her favorite."
Hemlock Falls is a serialized story on Substack. Each chapter is a place in town, and each place becomes a candle.
Join the list and we'll email you the moment Hemlock Falls opens on Halloween, before we post it anywhere else.
From the Field Guide
Every scent begins somewhere real: wet fir after rain, a creek bed in October, cedar smoke drifting over a quiet road. We bottle the places that stay with us.
Everything is just a dream away
Every candle begins somewhere real: falling water, distant trains, and the particular gold of forest light at dusk. Made in the Pacific Northwest, inspired by the places we never quite leave behind.
