Dead Leaves and Dark Incense Candle

Recommended Posts

Fallen leaves against a backdrop of myrrh, smoky opoponax, and labdanum.


Oh my goodness-this is so beautiful! Dark and haunting but with a sweetness to it. I wish i could describe this in terms of notes but i just can't. If you think you will like it, get it!

That was my review before i lit the candle. After lighting it smells the same but there isn't much throw. :-(

Cold sniff of unlit tealight: Mostly the dark incense, but w/ a hint of the leaf note.

 

Lit: Much the same as when not lit. These fallen leaves have been rained upon, as there's a curious hint of an aquatic note amongst the dark incense notes, which themselves are not overpowering in the least. I like the leaf note, and the incense notes of myrrh, opoponax, and labdanum. It's a nice but gentle scent.

Dead Leaves and Desolation was a purely leafy scent, and was too much for me. This has the same leaf note, but is given depth and richness from the incense. THIS is what I think when I consider nature as a temple.

 

Dark and sweet resin, not too strong in terms of throw, which is nice. It's complex and simple at once.
