We're such big fans of Singaporean fashion brand Dear Samfu, so when they asked if we would collaborate with them on their Lunar 2025 Homecoming Collection launch, it was a no brainer.
But first, what would a Homecoming-inspired candle feel like?
We knew what we wanted the candle to feel like; one that evokes the sense of returning to warmth and familiarity. A smell that felt like a comforting embrace.

We also decided on the name of Returning Home. Unlike Homecoming, which we felt had an American-centric connotation to it, we felt Returning Home has a nice memory link to it.
Returning Home for CNY, and the importance of doing so. To celebrate one’s roots, to revisit treasured nostalgic memories and the familiar feeling of warmth and embrace. Most importantly, we wanted a scent to mark the arrival of a new season of spring, one where old memories are shed and a new year is waiting to bloom.
What does Returning Home smell like?
The hero note of Returning Home is chinese green tea, reminiscent of the warm cups shared at family gatherings.
We love green tea for its balance - delicate and serene yet rich in its aroma and essence. It is the perfect hero note for the richness of spring.


We can't wait for you to experience what this light, comforting and nourishing scent smells like.
We will be popping up at Sunday Bedding @ Raffles City from 18 to 26 Jan, kicking off with 2 candlemaking sessions co-hosted with Dear Samfu on 18 Jan at 10am and 11.30am. Afterwhich, this limited lunar 2025 festive scent will be available for purchase at Sunday Bedding RF.
We can't wait to see you there! 💚
