Boy Smells began in 2015 as an experiment in candle-making in the Los Angeles kitchen of co-founders and partners Matthew Herman and David Kien. Herman and Kien – both fashion veterans who worked in design and product development – began by making the things they’d want to use on a daily basis, products that were fluid, essential, but also accessible. “We wanted to have products that were embracing masculine and feminine simultaneously in a simple and straight-forward way that wasn’t overtly targeted to one gender,” says co-founder, Matthew Herman. “It’s a permission to harness your power from wherever you want it.”
Sensuous, accessible and bright, Boy Smells are famed for full bodied fragrances that elevate your intimate world. Boy Smells renews the personal care routine by creating rituals from an otherwise mundane experience. Conceived beyond the gender binary, Boy Smells is developed and designed in Los Angeles with fragrance and natural oils. Candles are hand-poured in reusable glass vessels and feature a proprietary all-natural coconut and bees wax blend.
