Relaxing Scents · By Reese Designs
Home is not just a place,
Home is not just a place,
it's a feeling.
Every room beyond these gates has its own scent, its own light, its own mood.
Touch the crest to be let in
Every room beyond these gates has its own scent, its own light, its own mood.
Every door leads to a different mood — pick whichever one calls to you.
Hand-poured, 8 oz, organic soy wax with a 30+ hour burn.
Every candle here is hand-poured in small batches with an organic soy wax blend and a single cotton wick, so the burn stays clean and even for 30-plus hours. Set one on the mantel or the console, wherever the evening tends to slow down — the parlour is where the house first learns to relax.
Sample reviews shown for layout — Sheena, swap these in for your real customer reviews whenever you're ready.
★★★★★"The Amir candle turned my whole living room into somewhere I actually want to sit and do nothing."
★★★★★"Rich without being heavy — burns clean and the scent fills the room in about ten minutes."
★★★★☆"Guava and rose sounded like it might be too sweet — it isn't. My new go-to for date nights in."
4 oz room sprays for linens, air, and everywhere in between.
Each spray is a 4 oz reset for linens, air, and the ten minutes between one thing and the next. Mist the bath before you run the water, the sheets before bed, or the hallway on your way out the door — it's the fastest way to change the mood of a room.

★★★★★"Denim smells expensive without trying — driftwood and lavender, not perfume-y at all."
★★★★★"I spray this on my sheets every single night now. Smells like a hotel I can't afford."
★★★★☆"Sage and lavender, very calming — this is the one I keep by the bathroom sink."
1 oz amber glass, vegan and cruelty-free, apothecary-style.
These oils are made for the diffuser on the nightstand — a few drops, twenty minutes before bed, and the whole room settles with you. Bottled in amber glass, vegan and cruelty-free, and skin-safe when used as directed.

★★★★★"Smells like vacation. My whole bedroom smells like a beach house now."
★★★★☆"Warm and rich, a little goes a long way — perfect for winding down."
Five bundles, from a simple pair to the complete set — wrapped together as one gift.

★★★★★"Bought this for my sister and ended up ordering myself one too. Everything matches so well together."
★★★★★"Gave this as a housewarming gift and it was the first thing people asked about."
Quieter, a little more private — step through whichever one calls to you.
Private & group workshops, brought right to you — for all your senses.
Hand-poured, 8 oz, organic soy wax — this season's candles only.
A small, seasonal batch of candles made for the months when the light turns gold and the evenings ask you to slow down — cinnamon and citrus, toasted marshmallow and smoked oak, cypress and oud. Same hand-poured soy wax and 30-plus hour burn as every candle in the house, just dressed for fall.

★★★★★"Fallen Leaves smells exactly like fall is supposed to smell. Lit it the day it arrived and haven't stopped."
★★★★★"Sweater Weather is the coziest thing I own. Marshmallow and smoked oak together sounds odd and works perfectly."
Alcohol-free fine fragrance mists, made for everyday wear and layering.
These mists are made to be worn, not just sprayed once and forgotten — lightweight, non-greasy, and gentle enough to reapply throughout the day or layer under your favorite perfume. Alcohol-free, paraben-free, and travel-friendly, so the bottle can live in a bag as easily as on a dresser.

★★★★★"Adore smells like a warm hug. I keep it in my bag and spritz it before every meeting."
★★★★☆"Dream is soft without being boring — florals but grown-up. Lasts longer than I expected for a mist."
A fragrance mist and a beard balm, built around the same everyday confidence.
Handsome is a modern, wearable fragrance mist — warm amber and clean woods, confident without trying too hard. The Beard Balm keeps things low-maintenance: shea and cocoa butter to soften and condition, a light natural hold to shape, and a warm Vanilla Teakwood scent that carries through the day.

★★★★★"Got Handsome for my husband and now it's 'his' scent. Not overpowering, just clean and warm."
★★★★★"The beard balm smells incredible and actually keeps things soft all day, not just right after applying."

Founder & creator of Relaxing Scents by Reese Designs.
Hi, I'm Sheena, founder and creator of Relaxing Scents by Reese Designs — a Black woman-owned home fragrance and wellness brand. What started in 2020 with a love for candles and a peaceful home has grown into something much bigger than I originally imagined. I've always believed the way a space smells can completely change the way it feels — bringing comfort, setting a mood, creating memories, or simply giving you a moment to slow down.
That belief is why Relaxing Scents has grown beyond candles into handcrafted room sprays, diffusing oils, body mists, beard care, self-care products, curated gifts, and creative wellness experiences. As a Black woman entrepreneur, I'm proud to build a brand rooted in creativity and connection — whether I'm creating a new fragrance, meeting customers at a pop-up, designing a custom gift, or leading a candle-making workshop, I want every experience with Relaxing Scents to feel personal and intentional.
For me, this brand isn't simply about making things smell good. It's about creating a feeling. Thank you for letting Relaxing Scents become a small part of your home, your self-care, your celebrations, and your everyday moments.
