The Grandma Wisdom Collection

NATIVE CARIBBEAN SCENTS

The Sayings That Raised Us

Scented Proverbs. Caribbean Truths.

These aren’t just candles. They’re reminders. Of what our grandmothers told us long before life made it real.

This collection is a love letter to the sayings that raised us—Caribbean proverbs spoken in kitchens and verandas, full of wisdom, wit, and warning. Sayings like “Don’t tek a six for a nine” or “Better fish in de sea than wha’ ketch.” They weren’t just advice. They were instruction manuals for living.

Each scent in this series is paired with a proverb—not just for nostalgia, but for support.

When grief creeps in. When doubt clouds your mind. When you need a whisper that says, you gon’ be alright.

Some scents offer strength. Others, clarity. All are hand-poured in Barbados using clean coconut- blend wax and 100% cotton wicks—because anything carrying our culture has to be made with care.

This isn’t just fragrance. It’s the voice of our elders, lit with intention.

🕯️ Light it. Feel it. Hear her voice.
