“Spring is all about awakening, renewal, rebirth,” Mimi Young tells me by phone from Vancouver, where she crafts her plant-based skin-care line, Trimaran Botanicals. For some, this translates into reorganized closets or impromptu haircuts. For Young, who also calls herself a shamanic practitioner, the seasonal shift prompted her to reimagine the smoldering sage stick—a staple in many a caftan lover’s home—as a Sacred Smudge Mist. The intent is the same: Blended with Douglas fir, Canadian red cedar, and two varieties of sage, the woodsy spray is perfect for “spaces that perhaps need to experience some energetic decluttering,” she explains. (With its smokeless formula, that includes deadline-clouded desks.)
But even those less spiritually inclined can find a feel-good vibe in refreshing the air with a head-clearing scent. The latest from Cire Trudon—a portable objet in brass and bottle-green glass—warms perfumed wax cameos. Japan-made Chikuseiko incense and a Wary Meyers candle capture the essence of cherry blossom season. Or for a dose of on-trend palo santo, pick up Captain Blankenship’s purifying spray, designed to greet the new moon—right on time for Thursday.
