OUR STORY

Rooted in carefree California simplicity, Sandoval’s life-enhancing aromatics stir the spirit and quiet the mind. Hand-blended with only natural essential oils, absolutes, woods, and resins sourced from around the world, our scents are rich in natural aromatherapy benefits and free from synthetic perfumes and additives that can disrupt the rhythms of the body.

Each of our scents contains an energy crystal, charged with good intentions and bathed in the light of the full moon—to amplify your intentions and the sensual energy of your spirit and home. 

The name Sandoval was inspired by our founder’s grandfather who always smelled of fresh, powdery, traditional men’s cologne and who managed to find joy in every situation. Founder Michael Carbaugh finds his inspiration in growing up across America and around the world-Aromas in spice markets, trekking the woods of Bavaria’s Black Forest, hiking the deserts of the mesquite-rich American Southwest and defining an edge in New York. The inspirations for Sandoval’s rich scent experiences span the globe. The lushly fragrant redwood and cedar forests of Northern California, blooming jasmine, citrus, and native sage of Southern California culminate in a sensibility unique to Sandoval. 

Michael created Sandoval as he traced his own journey in life. He longed to share the places he’s explored and practices of working with essential oils and energy crystals.  Realizing the potential in each person to create and elevate their own life experience, Michael wanted to share these tools that he foraged to help create a conscious community.
