“Mystic Waters” Soy Wax Candle by Marvel + Moon
Comes in a 3oz tin
This candle evokes the sturdy heart of a ship, a vessel traversing the threshold between the conscious and the unconscious. It conjures the scent of ancient tree's accrued experience rings, weathered wood, and salty air.
Notes of ozone and crisp linen, reminiscent of sun-bleached sails billowing in the wind, blend with the bracing scent of eucalyptus and the subtle sweetness of freesia, like a secret with the universe that blooms. A heart of sea salt anchors the fragrance, echoing the mercurial hermetic salt from the sea, while a touch of moss adds an earthy, green depth, bringing to mind the lichen in the mists. A hint of patchouli grounds the scent, like footsteps inside ourselves together.
This candle stands as an invitation to drink to your endless surroundings, to burn the ego's symphonies to vapors in mystical exchange, and to find "some peace of the future amidst permanent tribulation.
SCENT NOTES: Ozone. Linen. Eucalyptus. Freesia. Sea Salt. Moss. Patchouli.
ADORNMENTS: Pink Sea Salt & White Oak Bark.
