What this record means
The record shows that the mark “NOVA” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant, Fashion Nova, LLC, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on June 27, 2025, and the abandonment was recorded on March 11, 2026. The only goods listed are candles, scented candles, and aromatherapy fragrance candles, so a similar name used for those products would raise the closest concern. The record does not give the mark any control over other uses of the word “NOVA.” No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. The latest event is the abandonment notice on March 11, 2026. For someone considering a similar name, the main risk is that the abandoned mark still shows a prior claim to the word “NOVA” in the candle category, so using the name for candles or related scented products could create a potential conflict.
