Fresa Creative is a Chicago-based, Latina-owned candle brand celebrating culture, color, and design. Growing up as a first-generation Mexican American Latina raised in the rural Midwest, Bex Galvan often felt “not from here or there,” always navigating the balancing act between cultures, customs, religion, and gender norms. She built Fresa as a platform to connect her own cultural stories and identity, using personal scent memories to empower people to be unapologetically themselves.
Why We Love This
Why We Love This
Scent and memory are linked strongly in the brain, which makes fragrances inspired by specific memories that much more poignant! I love how Bex weaves her personal experiences into each scent she creates, making her candles into a medium of self expression. --Gigi
Says maker Bex Galvan: "FRUIT TREE is dedicated to my immigrant family and their impulse to immediately plant fruit-bearing trees in their backyards. Childhood summers were filled with under ripe peaches, pears, and apricots and cleaning up the eventual harvest. FRUIT TREE is floral and fruity and smells like a blossoming stone fruit tree."
The packaging is inspired by Mexican snack foods; each candle comes in a gift-ready box and is topped with a peel-back dust cover, meant to invoke that little feeling of excitement and joy opening a geletina.
4 oz. coconut and soy wax candle with cotton wick. Burn time roughly 20 hours.
