A Luxury Candle Inspired by Fashion’s Color of the Moment

Butter is everywhere right now - not just in kitchens, but in closets. From satin slips to sculptural knits, this soft butter yellow has emerged as fashion’s quiet obsession, a shade that whispers luxury while still feeling playful and undone.

At Circus, we’ve always loved when scent and sight collide with the cultural mood. That’s why Bound in Butter + Onyx feels like it couldn’t have arrived at a better moment. The vessel itself is quite special: draped in a butter-yellow latex skin, contrasted with an inky onyx stripe. It’s a statement in duality - a statement candle that pairs softness with edge, restraint with excess, home décor with fashion.

The fragrance leans into that same tension. With notes of saffron, leather, and amber, Bound in Butter + Onyx is not meek — it’s magnetic. Just like butter dressing in head-to-toe couture, this scent turns something subtle into something indulgent, decadent, and unforgettable.

This is butter yellow home décor reimagined through scent and design - not quiet, but loud. Not fleeting, but collectible. 

Butter, but bound.
