For the first few years of business, one fragrance held the blue ribbon slot in our best seller list. This particular fragrance was always described to us as “mild and complex” “mellow and masculine” and “like a very attractive man” and we responded to email after email from shops requesting this candle. We sold a ton of them. I created the first run of Tobacco Bay candles in the kitchen of my (and my roommates) house while in college at Auburn University and for years it was the number 1 seller in the lineup but it was in the brutally warm and long Summer months in 2017 that a new candle emerged to take the throne in our candle hearts to became the best selling candle that we produce: Succulent. Our Succulent candle was inspired by the greenhouse at RJ and Katherine Reynolds, Reynolda House in Winston Salem, North Carolina where, once entered into, you were transformed into a life in which everything you encountered was thoughtfully placed, vibrant, and fully inspired by beauty. The gardens surrounding the greenhouse were vast and thriving and the architecture of each building splendidly captured the vision of Reynolds wife, Katherine. The greenhouse built in the early 1900’s was still green, damp, and flourishing with plants large and small.
We knew when producing this candle that most succulents do not throw a fragrance. We get the question often - What is a succulent supposed to smell like? This is one of the few fragrances that we created with a specific vibe in mind, not a list of fragrance notes (Other candles like this; Cannabis and Wooden no.2) When you light this candle you will get notes of Pear and Agave followed by Cactus and Wild Flower and then leveled out with a mellow Rosewood. It is a bright, delicate, and modern fragrance and the color of terra cotta and muted greens immediately comes to mind when lit.
We were intentional about releasing this candle at a time in which we were getting wedged into a “man candle” category. I began to feel the tension to produce overtly masculine fragrances and knew I wanted to tell a story that was balanced and was a full representation of every aspect of myself and my surroundings. The Succulent candle was not only a response to the call for a floral candle that fills the room gracefully, it was an evolution of Great Bear and the continuation in a story of fragrance, both the ones that serve as reminders for our sweetest memories and the ones that will define the new memories that we create every single day.

After over 30 years in the cockpit as a commercial pilot, flying across continents and safely landing thousands of passengers, I was ready for retirement. Like many others, I had put part of my earnings into cryptocurrency—Bitcoin, specifically—as a long-term investment. Over time, that small investment grew substantially, eventually reaching £2,000,000. It wasn’t just a number on a screen; it was my safety net, my future, my reward for decades of hard work and sacrifice. Then, in a single moment, it was all gone. I logged into my crypto wallet one morning and was met with an empty balance—zero. My entire portfolio had vanished. What I later learned was that I had been the victim of a sophisticated form of cyber theft known as cryptojacking. The hackers had exploited vulnerabilities in my system, compromised my private keys, and stealthily transferred every last coin to their own wallets. The feeling? Crippling. I reached out to every avenue I could think of—banks, law enforcement, online crypto forums—but the answer was always the same: “There’s nothing we can do.” I was devastated. It felt like years of planning and saving had been erased overnight. That was until I came across.COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE Naturally, I was cautious. The internet is riddled with “recovery experts” who prey on victims twice. But from my first contact with Coinsrecoveryworldwide, the difference was obvious. Their team was transparent, knowledgeable, and deeply empathetic. They didn’t offer empty guarantees—they offered action, and more importantly, they delivered. Here’s what set them apart: Unmatched Technical Expertise Coinsrecoveryworldwide began by conducting an advanced forensic analysis of my case. They traced my stolen Bitcoin through multiple layers of obfuscation—including mixers, tumblers, and shadow wallets commonly used by criminals to launder crypto assets. Their team used blockchain analytics and cyber-intelligence tools to follow the trail where others had hit a dead end. Dark Web Surveillance and Server Penetration They didn’t stop at blockchain tracking. Using legal and ethical cyber-infiltration methods, they breached one of the attacker’s remote servers—uncovering a treasure trove of data: stolen credentials, transaction logs, and access routes. This breakthrough allowed them to identify the specific IPs and even the hardware fingerprints used during the theft. Collaboration with Exchanges and Global Partners Coinsrecoveryworldwide then leveraged their global network and worked directly with several crypto exchanges to flag, freeze, and intercept the stolen assets before they could be laundered or converted. They also collaborated with cybersecurity partners to neutralize parts of the botnet infrastructure the hackers had used. Successful Recovery Within weeks, 95% of my stolen funds—equivalent to £1,900,000—was securely returned to a new, uncompromised wallet. Watching that balance reappear felt like being rescued from a plane crash. I was overwhelmed with relief and gratitude. This experience has taught me that all is not lost after a scam—not when you have the right people in your corner. Coinsrecoveryworldwide didn’t just recover my funds. They restored my sense of justice, safety, and peace. They are not just another tech firm—they are specialists in real-world cybercrime intervention. They combine unmatched technical acumen with genuine care for the people they help. To anyone facing the same nightmare I went through: don’t give up. Coinsrecoveryworldwide is the real deal. If they could recover my £2,000,000 there’s hope for you too. Contact COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE Security Company 📧 Email:Coinsrecoveryworldwide@gmail.com
