Spirit Lamp 198 g

Tea service at the colonial parlor of Mme. Revere, topless psychic. Hot silver heated by open flame. Bohea vapours, radiant heat, milk. “Spirit Lamp should smell like the flame on a silver tea service in a place of ill repute in colonial era Boston. The spirit lamp was used for light and heating fueled by alcohol or “spirit.” I can picture the teapot—perhaps smithed by Paul Revere (he crushed silver when not shouting alarms on horseback).Inside the water boils with legendary bohea tea (an oolong probably from near the Wuyi Mountain preserve). The steam is peachy, airy, with touches of bleached ginger and coconut milk. The air of a colonial brothel given respite by the freshness of this rare tea drunk to stay up all night reading fortunes in a smoky den.” – D.S., Perfumer & Founder. Top notes: Hot metal, Peach water, Petitgrain Heart notes: White ginger, Coconut milk Base notes: Radiant musk, Bohea tea - Handcrafted in small batches from carefully selected raw materials, each transcendent fragrance blend is mixed in vegan soy wax, poured into a jar and finished with a woven cotton wick. - Burning time approx. 60h. - Trim the wick. - Once your candle is lit, don't blow it out until the top layer of way has melted all the way across to achieve an even burn (several hours). Whenever a candle only burns for a few moments, the wick starts to sink lower and a tunnel is forming right through the center of the candle. All the unmelted wax will be tough to light, representing hours of lovely fragrance that won't be utilized. SOY-VEGETABLE WAX, FRAGRANCE (PARFUM)
