Bukit Timah Candle

With one of the world’s richest ecosystems, Bukit Timah is Singapore’s wild heart — a rainforest sanctuary where time stretches and the air hums with quiet life. Beneath a canopy of green, the scent of rain-soaked soil mingles with frangipani and wild jasmine drifting along shaded trails.

Here, the city softens. The pace slows. And in the stillness, you can feel the pulse of the earth — lush, layered, and alive.

About the scent

This scent embodies the grounded spirit of the forest after rain — the warmth of wet earth meeting the tropical bloom of frangipani and jasmine. Fresh, floral, and quietly sensual, it captures that calm, green energy that lingers long after a tropical storm has passed.
