Something's been missing

Inspired by the connection between people and planet, Field Guide Essentials is doing things differently. We craft natural, small batch, sustainable candles and personal fragrance for the adventurer and explorer in us all. Mindfully made from the cleanest plant and nature-based, cruelty-free, vegan ingredients, our candles and essentials serve as a platform for healing and caring for our environment. With reusable containers and 100% recyclable and reusable packaging, Field Guide Essentials nurtures and celebrates the spaces and skin we live in and the Earth we call home.

Through our partnership with One Percent for the Planet, we donate 1% of our annual revenue to non-profits that help us fulfill our mission. It's important to us to be able to provide accountability to our customers and retail partners through reputable giving, and 1% for the Planet certifies every donation we make.

Our philosophy begins with sustainability, inclusivity, and an adventurous spirit. Whenever possible, we design our packaging to be eco-friendly, reusable, and beautiful beyond its life to be repurposed and reduce waste in landfills. We create every product with the intention to leave our planet better than we found it.
