Welcome to Field Notes

Hi,

Welcome to Field Notes—a digital journal from the world of Leland Francis.

I started this brand to create products that reflect a slower, more intentional approach to beauty and fragrance. I wanted to honor the land I come from—Western Oklahoma—and the people, places, and memories that continue to shape me. With every product we make, from botanical serums to hand-poured candles, the goal is the same: purity, purpose, and presence.

This newsletter is a natural extension of that philosophy. Here, you’ll find:

• Stories behind our fragrances and the people who inspired them

• Seasonal skincare rituals, ingredient spotlights, and studio notes

• A closer look at how we make things—with care for the planet and the people we serve

We’ll keep it intimate and thoughtful, with posts every other week—sometimes more if inspiration strikes.

I’m so grateful you’re here and can’t wait to share what’s next. Our first story begins with a scent called 109—and the woman who inspired it. Stay tuned for that, and thank you for joining us on this journey.

With gratitude,
Dillon Peña
Founder, Leland Francis
