Aroma palette is woody, herbal, resinous and gourmand. Highlights include spectral white amber, extinguished beeswax candles, absinthe, and candied maple.
A winter apparition in scent, this Dickens inspired fragrance recalls the hush of an old house after the final guests have gone, when candle smoke curls through empty rooms and the air still holds the sweetness of a finished feast. But, there is a somber feel to this composition, like old ghosts and memories hanging in the air.
White amber lends a pale glow, eerie and ghostlike, against the darker weight of resins and aged woods. The scent of beeswax clings to the air, touched with extinguished wicks. Absinthe weaves through on the drydown, boozy and green, sharp enough to cut through the sugar that follows. Beneath it all, a slow sweetness of candied maple rises, mingling with dust, memory, and the warmth that lingers in things once loved.
