Garden Grove Soy Wax Candle | Citron, Tomato & Moss

Monte Rio has its grove, and then it has its other grove. Not the secretive one. The one with sun in it. Tomato leaf in the air. Lemon peel in the breeze. Mediterranean light landing where it doesn’t usually land in Northern California.

Garden Grove lives in that sun.

Lemon peel, bergamot, and tomato leaf open it — bright and verdant, the scent of a morning walk through dewy vines and citrus. Basil, thyme, lemongrass, and olive through the heart, a garden-fresh bouquet of sweet herbs that almost dares you to make lunch out of it. Green moss and wood at the base, the quiet depth of a shaded forest floor that catches everything bright above it.

It is the smell of a Grecian garden in Sonoma. Of citrus and herbs collaborating. Of sunlight, green leaves, and a sense of mischief — the kind only Monte Rio can pull off.
