Balmy Summer Body Mist Fragrance

Established as a retail shop in 2015, Merge expanded its vision in 2023 with the launch of its in-house self-care and apparel line. Named for the idea of bringing creative goods together under one roof, Merge continues to operate from its flagship location in the Canadian surf town of Tofino.

When designing their products, they aim to use natural and sustainable materials, whether it’s for clothing, self-care products, or home goods.

They use coconut oil as a base for their Balmy fragrance, and are currently working on sourcing a locally made oil. They aim to reduce as much as possible the use of synthetic agents, under 1% of the total content, and go for natural alternatives whenever possible.

Their clothing, self-care and home goods are mostly handmade or manufactured in Canada.

Why? Because it means:

Supporting small makers
Close collaboration & supply chain, reducing carbon footprint
A shared vision of quality & design
Ensured fair working conditions

From Quebec, Ontario, to BC, they work alongside skilled artisans to bring these designs to life. Every one of them has a different expertise to bring to the table.

Their goods are made with love and passion for design, using quality materials. Once the product is yours, they hope that you will do your best to give it the lifetime that it was meant for.
