At Elm Design Candles, each scent we create is more than just a fragrance; it’s a story, a memory, a piece of the Pacific Northwest captured in a jar. Our latest scent, Rosebud, is no exception. This new addition to our collection is a free-spirited floral scent with notes of rose, magnolia, and patchouli, inspired by the wild Nootka Roses that flourish around Whidbey Island.
Inspiration Behind Rosebud
Nootka Roses are a stunning native species that bloom abundantly on Whidbey Island. Their delicate beauty and intoxicating fragrance make them a true symbol of the island’s natural charm. Growing up surrounded by these roses, their sight and scent have always brought a sense of peace and nostalgia, making them the perfect muse for our Rosebud candle.
The Creative Process
Creating Rosebud was a journey filled with creativity and passion. We started with the vision of capturing the essence of a freshly opened bloom, right on the bush after a night of rain. The primary notes of rose, magnolia, and patchouli were carefully selected to embody this vision. Rose provides the classic floral heart, magnolia adds a touch of elegance, and patchouli grounds the scent with its earthy depth.
Emotional Connection
Rosebud is more than just a fragrance; it’s an experience. Lighting this candle is like stepping into a garden at dawn, surrounded by freshly bloomed roses after a gentle rain. It evokes feelings of serenity, rejuvenation, and a connection to nature’s simple wonders.
Incorporating Rosebud into Daily Life
Rosebud is versatile and can enhance various moments in your daily life. Here are a few suggestions:

The journey of creating Rosebud has been a labor of love, inspired by the wild beauty of Whidbey Island’s Nootka Roses. We invite you to experience this unique scent and let it transport you to a garden of fresh blooms.
