We didn’t invent the lotion candle....
we just perfected it

Dozens of incredible, nature-inspired scents. Two gorgeous stores in North Carolina and Georgia.

Element Tree Essentials is a small woman-owned business with a passion for creating captivating aromas and healing oil blends.

Our artisanal lotion candles have become a cherished part of countless homes and spaces all over the country.


Drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of Asheville and its surrounding mountains, we embarked on a mission to create lotion candles that not only delighted the senses, but also brought a touch of nature's serenity into the home.

Today the business has grown to include two retail locations and over 30 team members across two states.
