Cherry Tree – George Washington Collection
Inspired by the enduring legend of George Washington and the famous cherry tree myth, Cherry Tree captures the spirit of honesty, character, and the early American frontier in a rich, sophisticated fragrance.
The scent opens with a bold blend of black cherry, almond, and raspberry, creating a deep fruit-forward aroma that is both sweet and inviting. As the candle burns, warm notes of vanilla and earthy vetiver emerge, adding depth and refinement. Finally, a distinguished base of cedar and sandalwood provides a smooth, woodsy finish reminiscent of handcrafted timber and the landscapes of colonial America.

Before the sun fully rose on April 19, 1775, the first shots of the Battles of Lexington and Concord echoed across the quiet fields of Massachusetts — marking the beginning of the American Revolutionary War.

Hand-poured in the USA in a classic amber jar, this 8oz candle is crafted with 100% soy wax and dual eco wicks for a clean, even burn and a strong, atmospheric throw.
