The Mat Finish: A Love Letter to Bugs. Just Kidding.

A note from Mathew — co-founder of Greenbriar Market + Refillery

I like summer.
I don’t like being eaten alive.

Simple math.

As soon as the weather warms up, mosquitoes hold a secret vote and decide I’m the evening’s main course. Spiders show up for moral support. Wasps join in, just to keep things spicy.

So yeah—we made something for that. Actually, two things.

🕯️ Summer Serenity Outdoor Candle

• Smells good (cedar, eucalyptus, mint, and orange)

• Doesn’t smoke you out like a citronella torch

• Works even when it’s not lit. (Seriously—leave the lid off and spiders tend to back off)

🌿 Summer Serenity Bug Spray

• Same scent, zero DEET

• Safe on skin. Not so safe for bugs

• Shake before spraying—real ingredients like to float in layers, not harmony

People keep telling me it smells so good they’d wear it as cologne.
Honestly, go ahead. Whatever keeps the mosquitoes guessing.
