Our Story
About The Blacksence
Ancestral Apothecary | Southern Ritual | Black Land Reclamation
The Blacksence is more than a wellness brand — it’s a portal. A prayer. A practice.
Rooted in Southern Black healing traditions, we craft intentional body care, candles, and teas to support your return to rest, ritual, and remembrance.
Our name, Blacksence, is a blend of “Black scents” and the old word “sence” — meaning ancestral wisdom passed through the body, the breath, and the bloodline.
We are reclaiming the sacred. We are tending the land. We are remembering ourselves whole.
Our Mission:
To nourish body and spirit through sensory offerings that reconnect us to ancestral healing, community care, and cultural preservation.
Earth Medicine Farms
Our work is rooted — literally. Every purchase supports the reclamation of my family’s 50-acre farm in South Carolina, purchased by my great-grandparents in 1952. We're restoring the land to grow heirloom herbs like okra, senna, and yams — plants once braided into our ancestors' hair for survival, now grown in freedom and abundance. herbal tea, candles, herbal oils
"Meet the Maker" Bio
Meet Kymstar, the Soul Behind The Blacksence
I’m Kymstar — a Southern-born medicine maker, memory keeper, and spiritual creative.
The Blacksence was born from my own return: to the land, to rest, to ritual, and to the ancestral wisdom passed down through my matriarchal line.
I create each product like an offering — hand-pouring candles that melt into nourishment, steeping herbs grown from legacy soil, and blending scents that stir something ancient in us. My hands remember what was hidden in the hair of our ancestors. Now, we bring it to light.
Through The Blacksence, I invite you to honor your own lineage, your own softness, your own sacred sense.
