The Scent Your Hands Remember


A warmth no machine can stamp out, poured one cup at a time. Since 2019, Sohyang has insisted on small batches alone, crafting quiet luxury by hand.

Twenty at a time — no more. When the wax loses its temperature, the grain of the scent collapses right along with it.


From day one, Sohyang has committed to small batches. In a place that chose the touch of the hand over convenience, and finish over scale, six scents were born.

Process


How a single
scent comes to be




01


Blending


We measure a perfumer-designed fragrance into American smoke-free soy wax at 6–9%. When the seasons turn, we recalibrate the ratios.


02


Pouring


At 55°C — the moment the wax flows at its clearest — we pour into each ceramic vessel by hand. The wick is set and centered by eye.


03


Curing


Once poured, they rest in the shade for at least 72 hours. The scent settles deep into the wax, spreading evenly from the very first flame.

Materials & Values


The less you add,
the clearer it becomes




04

Smoke-free soy wax

We use only 100% plant-based soy wax, free of petroleum byproducts. It burns long at a low temperature, leaving no soot and no harmful residue.



05

Vegan · Cruelty-free

No animal-derived ingredients, and no animal testing at any stage of production. Paraffin and phthalates are ruled out, too.



06

Reusable ceramic vessels

Once burned down, a cup — or a small planter. The matte ceramic vessel is designed to live on where the scent leaves off.
