A New Yorker turned Sydneysider, Nicole crafted her first candles in her kitchen, blending notes that whisked her away to distant places and moments.

Now, Glasshouse’s delightfully potent candles, diffusers, and indulgent personal fragrances—like the bestsellers “The Hamptons, Lost In Amalfi, and Kyoto In Bloom”—synonymous with luxury and quality—have finally made their debut stateside.\nIn this episode, Nicole also discusses:\nCreating the scented candle category down under\nBuilding their own factory and continuing to manufacture in house\nCreating timeless scents with a cheeky twist pushing the boundaries of the industry\nLetting the packaging do the work to attract the customer\nPeople First: Hiring the right talent as the key to success\nThe magical allure of their festive holiday collection\nWe hope you enjoy this episode and gain valuable insights into Nicole’s journey and the growth of Glasshouse Fragrances.
