Of Leather and Wood – Harold & Maude

A dry breath rises as soon as it's lit. First, there's the fleeting brilliance of mandarin, like a bright light at the edge of day. Then the room slowly fills with leather: dense, refined, patinated, evoking an old jacket left on a wooden armchair. Cedar structures the space, warm and deep, followed by a discreet, rounded tonka bean that softens the whole without weighing it down.

The candle creates an atmosphere of understated elegance, a restrained, almost silent warmth. It evokes a hushed study, a deserted workshop, a late winter afternoon. It doesn't decorate the room; it reveals its contours. The air thickens with noble materials, memories, and wood.

  • Top notes: Mandarin
  • Heart notes: Leather
  • Base notes: Cedar, Tonka bean

A dry and dense home fragrance, like a dim light on the grain of leather and the fiber of wood.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What kind of atmosphere does this candle create?
    A woody, hushed world, both raw and delicate. Ideal for moments of calm, reading, or contemplative solitude.
  • Is leather the dominant material?
    Yes, but in moderation. It evokes more of a material than an animal: the leather is dry, clean, patinated by use.
  • Is it suitable for a small room?
    Yes. The diffusion is balanced, enveloping without being excessive, like a discreet and assured presence.

Customer reviews

  • Émile R. – 61 years old, Mazamet
    "The impression of an old leather jacket forgotten in a library. A matte, muted light that warms without ever feeling heavy."
  • Thierry M. – 49 years old, Autun
    "Cedarwood adds structure, tonka bean a subtle velvety feel. A serene, almost monastic atmosphere."
  • Antoine B. – 56 years old, Bort-les-Orgues
    "It transforms the room without overwhelming it. The leather is dry and refined, like a familiar relic. A true signature."

______________________________________________________________

Before each use, trim the wick of your scented candle to 5 mm using a suitable wick trimmer. Use a candle snuffer to prevent black smoke and preserve the quality of the wax. For the first burn, allow the candle to burn until the entire surface has melted (approximately 4 hours). This prevents a crater from forming around the wick. If an edge does not melt completely, gently push the soft wax back into the liquid wax before extinguishing the candle.
