Welcome to Wakeheart®, your source for luxurious perfumes and aromatherapy candles inspired by memories and moments. Our fragrances and products are crafted to capture life’s beautiful experiences and awaken your senses.
Passion for Perfumes

Our passion for perfume began in childhood. Founder Jessica Wakeheart grew up surrounded by her mother’s vast perfume collection. She loved smelling the different scents and seeing the ornate glass bottles lined up on the vanity. Jessica would often spray a mist of perfume as she danced and twirled around the house. Those sweet memories sparked a lifelong love of fragrance.
After studying chemistry and fragrance formulation, Jessica worked for years as a perfumer with a major beauty brand. She honed her skills composing layered scents that evoke emotion and memories. However, Jessica dreamt of channeling her creativity into her own perfume house. She wanted the freedom to craft bespoke fragrances inspired by cherished moments.
In 2015, Jessica left her job to launch Wakeheart Perfume. She converted her home studio into a perfumery where she hand-blends fine essential oils and essences. Jessica takes inspiration from places, people, art, and her own recollections to produce signature scents. Whether it’s a summer vacation, a beloved friend, or quiet mornings with tea, Jessica translates treasured experiences into luxurious perfumes.
Our Perfume Creation Process
Every Wakeheart perfume begins as an idea inspired by Jessica’s life and travels. She keeps detailed scent journals describing aromas and linking them to memories. These become the springboard for perfume concepts.
Jessica then researches and sources the highest quality essential oils, absolutes, tinctures and other pure ingredients. She obtains rare and exquisite essences from around the world. Jessica also forages in nature for botanical elements like leaves, buds, and flower petals.
In her home studio, Jessica carefully weighs out each component of the fragrance formula. She begins blending oils and infusions in tiny batches, taking detailed notes. It can take up to 50 trial modulations before arriving at the perfect balance.
Once Jessica completes the formula, she dilutes it with the highest grade perfumer’s alcohol. After resting to allow full diffusion, each perfume is filtered, bottled, packaged, and prepared for you to experience. We take great pride in this artisanal process that transforms feelings into fragrance.

Science, Artistry, and Recollections
At Wakeheart, perfume formulation requires technical expertise. Mastering the chemistry of essential oils allows us to design and balance complex fragrances. But scent composition is also deeply personal and emotional.
Memories infuse our products, from the perfume Jessica created for her wedding day to candles capturing cozy evenings by the fire. We believe every fragrance has a story.
