No. 96 – THE RAVEN CANDLE: a complex scent of saffron & amber

No. 96 is a complex answer to a simple question. The scent opens with bright bergamot and citrus, with a sharp hit of warm cardamom, like a knock at the door. The scent deepens into violet, hemp, and worn leather, growing richer and more dynamic, much like the complexities of grief itself. Another shift, and we enter the smell of a study, warmed by a glowing fire. Underneath it all, saffron and vetiver come alive over amber, cedar, and sandalwood. This scent lingers long after midnight, like a welcomed guest who chose to stay.
