Thursday check-in from your local scent shop šÆļø
Hey, if you're new here, I'm Nathan. I'm a local scent scientist (yes, that's really what I call myself) and I run Wicksy out of The Morrow Arts Center in Morrow, OH.
We make unique, nostalgic fragrances for your home, body, bath, and cleaning routine. Candles, laundry soaps, dish soaps, car fresheners, and honestly so much more. Over 20 products and counting.
If you've been seeing our posts and haven't made it in yet, take this as your sign. We're at 10 Miranda St inside a beautiful historic schoolhouse building surrounded by other amazing small shops and services. Come find us Wednesday through Saturday 10am to 6pm, and Sundays 12pm to 4pm.
As a small business owner, every single visit means more than you know.
Okay, weekly update time because a LOT is happening and I want you guys to know about all of it.
This week I'm deep in restock mode. Foaming hand soaps, candles, wax melts, car fresheners, bar soaps, body oils, and laundry detergents are all getting replenished. But the thing I'm probably most excited about right now is our incense situation.
We've been working with incense sticks for a while, and I kept running into the same wall. They're just too difficult to produce at scale to actually keep up with demand the way I want to.
So we're making a change. We're switching to incense cones, and honestly I think you're going to love them. Expect to see them hitting shelves in the next few days.
Now for the big one.
Black Out Cherry is coming May 9th. This is peak summer fruity realness and I mean that. Top notes of black cherry, almond, and raspberry. Middle notes of vanilla and vetiver. Bottom notes of cedar and sandalwood. It's bold, it's warm, it's a little unexpected.
You don't want to miss this launch.
May Savings is also LIVE right now, and with Mother's Day right around the corner this couldn't be better timing.
Here's how it works:
Spend $25 and take home a free Wax Melt or Car Freshener
Spend $50 and choose a free Lotion, Room Spray, or Body Oil
Spend $75 and grab a free All Purpose Cleaner, Foaming Hand Soap, or Dish Soap
Spend $100 and pick from a free Candle, Diffuser Oil, Whipped Sugar Soap, Laundry Soap, Perfume, or Cologne
Stock up, treat yourself, or let us help you knock out a Mother's Day gift. This one's a win either way.
And one more thing before I go. Later this month we're dropping our Liquid Body Washes. Details coming soon, I just couldn't keep it to myself any longer.
Happy Thursday, everyone. Grateful for every one of you who shows up for this little brand of ours. š¤
