Lola Jemibewon has the most wonderful creativity which we can all attest to her African roots!
Her business, Young Mary's, is firmly grounded in her family history and the sense of smell, which evokes memories in us all. Fragrance also has history and tells the story of towns, cities and countries across the continent.
"When you have a Young Mary's candle, it's an invitation to a conversation."
"I actually call the scents 'stories' because that's genuinely what they are. Each one is like a little door that you peek behind that you learn more about the place you might not have known."
"It's my hope that whenever people buy a Young Mary's product that you're not just buying a candle, you're buying a little journey. It makes these places that seem so exotic, a lot more approachable and that's really what we're about."
