Additional information
A warm resin harvested from the heart of a sacred wood.
Oriental, resinous, woody — warm and enveloping.
The fragrance opens with the vibrant warmth of resin flowing from the tree, like a tear frozen by the sun. The first wisps reveal a dry, subtly pungent cinnamon, soon enveloped by the floral nuances of geranium.
The candle's beating heart reveals a rich and deeply comforting accord. Siamese benzoin unfolds its caramelized and almost milky facets, joined by clove, patchouli, and the vanilla sweetness of tonka bean. The base becomes denser and more meditative: sandalwood, myrrh, and resins prolong the sensation of a silent refuge lit by the glow of incense.
Benzoin transforms the space — like an invisible sanctuary bathed in amber warmth.
