Nose Best Candle Shop
Donation protected
Hey Everyone! Cristian and Brittany here!
We are the founders of Nose Best, a cheeky soy wax candle company in the heart of Washington Heights. Our candles offer an enchanting dual fragrance, cocktail recipes, and a curated Spotify playlist that artfully craft the sensation of synesthesia. We produce, sell, and ship all of our sustainable soy wax candles from our small NYC apartments. The company launched as an e-commerce store on July 10th 2020 during the height of the pandemic. During this time, we saw the opportunity to finally start our dream business and work for ourselves.
We hope to raise enough money to open a space that will allow us to foster an inclusive community beyond selling our candles. Our space would provide locals with a place to network among friends, host small business driven events, and provide NYC with a handpicked sustainable marketplace where shoppers can explore other artisan small businesses throughout the US. We hope to open our shop by the end of 2021.
