Rooted in heritage
Named for apricot kernel oil and the apricot, Armenia’s national fruit — a nod to Kevork’s family story.
Family-owned in Altadena
A small family business rebuilding after the Eaton Fire, one careful batch at a time.

Our story · The rebuild
Kevork’s kitchen, one apricot at a time
Kevork started making soap in his kitchen in 2019, infusing it with herbs he grows himself — calendula, rosemary, mint, lavender. The name nods to apricot kernel oil, a core ingredient, and to the apricot itself: Armenia’s national fruit, and a quiet tie to his family’s heritage.
He also keeps his own bees — every jar of honey and beeswax candle starts in those hives. When the Eaton Fire took our production space in January 2025, the community showed up. We’re rebuilding, one small batch at a time.
the holy grail of skincare
Why apricot?
The real magic lives in the oil pressed from apricot kernels — rich in antioxidants and vitamins A, C, E, and K, it’s one of the true holy grails of natural skincare.
