In the world of security, you learn to appreciate the details—the things that happen in the dark, the atmosphere of a room, and the importance of reliability. It was in this world that Jesse and Shyla met, forming a bond built on trust and protection.

But beneath the tactical exterior, Shyla held a vision for a different kind of atmosphere. She dreamed of a candle company that didn't just smell good, but told a story. With Jesse’s unwavering support and partnership, that dream evolved from a quiet conversation into Velvet Underworld.

Together, they have transitioned from guarding people to guarding the "vibe" of your home. Velvet Underworld is a celebration of their journey: a blend of Shyla’s creative soul and the partnership that made it all possible.
