Description

A slow-burning seduction, this candle is designed to stir the senses and create a warm, intimate atmosphere. Created with natural aphrodisiacs, the scent opens with soft, blushing rose touched by golden sunlight, followed by the gentle, grounding depth of sandalwood. Musky jasmine adds a headiness, while a smooth base of warm vanilla lingers in its alluring heart. Each candle is hand poured in Brooklyn, New York and the matte black vessels are made and printed in the USA.

Desire speaks not in sweetness but in power, the match and not the flame. The heat rising beneath her skin, she is not summoned but comes freely like a slow burn made of pulse and breath. Rose and jasmine wind like smoke through sandalwood dusk, a soft exhale of vanilla and night-blooming musk.

The scent is sensual and quietly powerful. Narcotic rose and jasmine, long limbs entwined. Soft, creamy sandalwood anchors the composition while warm vanilla lingers beneath it all, its gentle sweetness enveloping and intimate.

Each candle is hand poured in the USA by renowned Brooklyn-based fragrance house Joya Studio, using a clean-burning soy wax blend from the US and natural fiber wicks.

Our candles are created with the same spirit and ethos that we have poured into our Slow Beauty over the years. We use natural scents created in collaboration with an American fragrance house that has decades of experience translating botanicals into nuanced scents for the home. They are intentionally softer in their diffusion than many conventional candles. Rather than relying on synthetic fragrance boosters or aggressive aroma chemicals, we use natural aromatic materials that unfold more gently and beautifully in a space. The effect is subtler, more atmospheric – designed to enhance a room, not overpower it.

The Scent as Talisman Home Collection

Flame has always been powerful, a light against darkness and a safeguard against what lurks in the shadows. For centuries, people have burned torches, oil lamps, and primitive candles made from animal fat, not only to illuminate their spaces but also to purify and protect their homes, and to offer devotion to gods and ancestors. Over time, scent became an essential part of these rituals, the perfumed smoke a bridge to the unseen. Crafted as talismans of sanctuary, our first ever home fragrance collection honors the power of the rising tribute, a daily ritual that transforms the space around you.
