Notes of Cypress, Salt + Smoke Inspired by the natural setting of Saint Augustine’s Castillo de San Marcos fortress, built in 1672. Today, the coquina fort is a beautiful waterfront gathering place with a strong ocean breeze and wafts of warming firewood in the fall and winter months. Saint Augustine inspired Candles + Incense YIELD is based in the small, historic town of Saint Augustine, Florida, founded by Spanish settlers in 1565. The scents are inspired by the city’s welcoming blend of lush, tropical flora, cozy narrow streets, and historic architecture. All candles and incense are handmade and packed in their Florida Studio.
