Best of Honolulu 2018: Shopping (Honolulu Magazine)
By Robbie Dingeman et al. | July 23, 2018
We’ve got a nose for delicious home fragrances and lately it’s been leading us straight to Honolulu candle label Jules + Gem Hawai‘i. Owner Lana Gronwald hand-pours each candle using soy wax, an ecofriendly wax made from soybean oil that burns cleaner and longer than paraffin wax, and wood wicks, which burn more evenly than cotton wicks and give off a soft crackling sound. The scents are lovely and light, never overpowering and pair tropical fruits and flowers with hints of mint, vanilla and coconut.
