The fragrance

How it unfolds in a room

  1. Top Rose, Geranium, Saffron, and Pepper(The first impression: a burst of rich florals and exotic spice.)
  2. Heart Rose, Clove, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Palmarosa(The heart: warm, spicy, and deeply floral.)
  3. Base Oud Wood, Musk, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Praline(The lingering trail: smoky, sweet, and velvety.)

About this scent

The most opulent thing we make. A magnetic blend built on the darkest Damask rose, wrapped in smoky oud wood and spiked with a hint of clove and sweet praline.

This is a scent for creating an atmosphere rather than freshening a room, whether that is a romantic evening or some deliberate self-care with the door shut.

These are botanical melts, hand-poured in our Norfolk studio and finished with a scattering of dried botanicals that float in the wax pool as it melts. It is the difference between a burner that works and a burner worth looking at.

One cube in the burner and let the tealight do the rest. Each melt gives hours of steady fragrance; lift it out and replace it once the scent starts to fade.

Use a standard 4-hour unscented tealight rather than an 8-hour maxi, which runs too hot for most burners, scorches the wax and burns the fragrance off early. Never leave a lit burner unattended, and keep it away from children, pets and draughts.

The Masculine Match. If 'Velvet Rose' is the feminine side of luxury, 'Dark Honey' is the masculine counterpart. Both share a rich, smoky depth.

The Spa Match. Combine the rose notes with exotic lily and amber for a whole-house fragrance that smells like a boutique hotel.
