<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nHi, Ingrid and Erica. Can you tell us more about yourselves? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hi! I\u2019m co-founder and Chief Creative Officer at THE NEW SAVANT. I got the idea to start TNS in the summer after I looked at a candle and wondered, \u201ccould I make that?\u201d So I made a trip to the local craft store, got some basic materials, and made my first candle. I immediately fell in love. I spent the next few months sourcing items from across the U.S. \u2013\u2013 vessels, wax, wicks, and oils \u2013\u2013 and mixing, making, burning, and testing. I became obsessed with making the perfect candle, and I think we\u2019ve come pretty darn close.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Erica: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi, Scentbird! I\u2019m the other co-founder and CEO of THE NEW SAVANT. When Ingrid shared with me her idea for TNS, I immediately wanted to help her bring it to life. I spent the first part of my career in tech x media (MTV, CBS, Twitter and Google) and while I loved that chapter, it brings me so much joy to focus on analog experiences that bring me into the present moment. Which is why I love building TNS with Ingrid and our team. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n As the scent designer for TNS, I want to create experiences that challenge us to think differently about what smells \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d. This is why I use notes that can be polarizing \u2013 like patchouli in The Dropout or dill in Heatwave and mix them in a way that creates something welcoming and new.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Indulge in a culinary journey with our curated selection of the best recipes<\/a>.

One of my favorite parts of having guests over is scent scaping. Before they arrive, I think about how I want them to feel when they walk into the entryway, the living room or the kitchen. Maybe I want to surprise them when they walk into the bathroom. So I light candles in these various places to create that mood. What I\u2019m creating is a scent story. <\/em>Make your house look good<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I love experiencing how the scents blend together, too. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n California Christmas and Only in New York, as a duet, is about the traditions we are born into and the traditions we create. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n California Christmas is based on my childhood holidays in Palm Springs. And Only in New York is inspired by the life I\u2019ve chosen for myself in a city that I love with an expanded version of family. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n We are really trying to break the mold of how things are done – from how we are running our business to how we are presenting the candle to how we are using notes in different ways. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n These two candles play into philosophy because each one is totally original. They are a duet, designed intentionally to be burned together. We are taking what people think they know about fragrances and surprising them. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Candles add warmth and light to a season that is typically darker. They can encourage a sense of ease and comfort when you\u2019re in a gathering. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n For the last decade, I\u2019ve been concocting a new hot chocolate recipe every year. It usually represents something I\u2019ve been inspired by throughout the year, or what I\u2019ve enjoyed. When I look at years past, hot chocolate acts as a sort of time capsule for my creative growth and personal taste.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ingrid: <\/p>\n\n\n\n This year it\u2019s going to smell like our holiday trio: California Christmas, Only in New York, and Harvey\u2019s Table, all together!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Try THE NEW SAVANT Only in New York candle here: https:\/\/scentbirddev.itcraftlab.com\/ecommerce\/candle\/the-new-savant-only-in-new-york-2769<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n THE NEW SAVANT California Christmas candle here: https:\/\/scentbirddev.itcraftlab.com\/ecommerce\/candle\/the-new-savant-california-christmas-2767<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This holiday season, gift your business the joy of sustainability with commercial solar panel installation<\/a> services.
