THE ALCHEMY
Notes of charred clove and crushed pepper flicker first, while burnt maple leaves a fleeting, bittersweet trace.
At the heart, black rose smolders through the embers—beautiful even in decay—its singed petals yielding to earthy patchouli and smoky java vetiver.
Forged through heat and deliberate destruction, birchwood tar anchors the base with the unmistakable intensity of a once all-consuming fire. Wrapped in sensual labdanum, guaiacwood cinders glow with a touch of rose undertones—a romance revealed in the ruins. What remains are smoke, embers, and an undying love that lingers long after all else has come undone.

TLDR: ALWAYS. TRIM. THE. WICK.
Trim the wicks to 1/4" before each burn to optimize performance and the longevity of your candle.
Burn all 4 wicks simultaneously each burn.
HOW LONG TO BURN
-FIRST BURN: burn long enough for the wax to reach the edges of the glass (approx. 3-4 hours).
-After that, 2-4 hours. Do not burn for more than 4 hours.
Approximate total burn time: up to 60-65 hours, depending on individual usage.
Discontinue burning when 1/2" of wax remains. We know it's hard, but it's time to let her go.
