Begin with the state you are in, rather than a preferred fragrance. FIND YOUR STATE offers five quiet questions and directs you to the formula that most closely belongs to the moment.

Each formula brings together wax, aromatic botanical materials, essential oils, and carefully selected fragrance components. The composition and botanical notes for each formula are listed on its individual archive page.

AN orders are prepared and dispatched from Shanghai, China. Tracking details are sent by email once the parcel begins its journey.

International delivery commonly takes 15–21 business days after dispatch. Timing may vary by destination, carrier conditions, and customs processing.

Import taxes or duties may be applied by the destination country. These charges are determined locally and remain the recipient’s responsibility.

No. AN is a sensory practice, not a clinical one. Our descriptions of states and botanicals are observational and experiential and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition.

Animals vary in their sensitivity to aromatic materials. Use candles in a well-ventilated room, keep them beyond direct reach, and consult a veterinarian if your animal has a known sensitivity or health concern.
