From Brooklyn to the Islands

How My Haitian Roots and Brooklyn Flair Influence BkBadness & Co.

Every candle I pour carries a story one thatโ€™s rooted in the boldness of Brooklyn and the vibrant soul of Haiti. At BkBadness & Co., this blend isnโ€™t just about scent; itโ€™s the heartbeat of my brand.

A Brooklyn State of Mind

Growing up in Brooklyn teaches you resilience. Itโ€™s fast-paced, creative, and unapologetically bold. That energy flows into everything I do from how I design my labels to the confident scent combinations I choose. Brooklyn gave me hustle, grit, and flavor. Thatโ€™s why โ€œBkโ€ leads the name itโ€™s a constant reminder of where this journey began and the fire it took to light the first flame.

Haitian Roots, Island Soul

My roots run deep in Haiti a place rich with culture, history, and undeniable spirit. From the rhythm of kompa music to the sweet scent of sugarcane, hibiscus tea, and island spice these memories are woven into every collection.

Being Haitian means being proud, resilient, and rooted in love. That pride shows up in the warmth of my scents, the joy I pour into every candle, and the sense of connection I hope my products bring to your space. Whether itโ€™s the richness of Mango Riddim or the calm of Island Breeze, each scent carries a whisper of home.

Where the Two Worlds Meet

Brooklyn gives me edge. Haiti gives me heart. Together, they inspire products that are bold yet comforting, luxurious yet familiar. Whether itโ€™s a spicy room spray or a tropical wax melt, youโ€™ll feel that perfect blend of city rhythm and island soul in every drop.

When people say they feel something special when they light one of my candles itโ€™s because theyโ€™re experiencing both of my worlds, fused with intention.

Itโ€™s More Than Wax, Itโ€™s a Vibe

At BkBadness & Co., we donโ€™t just sell candles. We share culture. We bottle memories. We spark joy. And whether youโ€™re from Flatbush or Port-au-Prince, I hope each scent reminds you to slow down, savor the moment, and celebrate where you come from.
