Damson & Rose Scented Candle

'Damson & Rose' is a decadent, fruity-floral fragrance that captures the feeling of an overgrown English walled garden. It blends the juicy, tart sweetness of ripe Damson plums with the powdery elegance of dark velvet roses.

This isn't a sugary sweet scent; it is deep, "jammy," and sophisticated, grounded by a base of patchouli and musk. Enhanced by a sustainable FSC-Certified Wooden Wick, the gentle crackle of the flame adds a cozy, rustic element, making this the perfect candle for transitioning from summer into the golden days of autumn.

🍑 The Scent Journey

This fragrance evolves from bright fruit to deep warmth:

  • 🍇 Top Notes: Damson Plum, Raspberry, and Lemon.
    (The first hit: juicy, tart, and mouth-watering.)
  • 🌹 Mid Notes: Velvet Rose, Jasmine, and Cassis.
    (The heart: a rich, powdery floral that softens the fruit.)
  • 🪵 Base Notes: Patchouli, Musk, and Amber.
    (The lingering trail: warm, earthy, and opulent.)

🔥 Why Choose a Wooden Wick?

We have swapped traditional cotton for natural wood to elevate your candle experience:

  • 🔊 The Crackle: The gentle snapping sound mimics a miniature log fire, adding an acoustic layer of relaxation to the scent.
  • 💨 Better Scent Throw: The wider flame creates a larger melt pool faster, releasing the rich damson notes more effectively.
  • 🌍 Sustainable: Our wicks are sourced from FSC-certified mills, ensuring responsible forest management.

🕯️ Usage Guide: Wooden Wick Care

Follow these tips to get the best crackle and burn time from your candle:

The First Burn: Light the wick across the whole width. Let it burn for 2-3 hours until the wax melts to the glass edges. This prevents "tunnelling" and ensures you use all the wax.

The "Pinch": Before re-lighting, the wick must be short (3-4mm). Wait for the candle to cool, then simply pinch off the black charred wood with your fingers. This keeps the flame clean and steady.

My Recommended Scent Companions

Pair this rich scent with other opulent or warm fragrances:

  • 🌹 Velvet Rose & Oud Candle: The Rose Duo. If you love the floral note in Damson & Rose, try the darker, smokier version with Velvet Rose & Oud. It’s the evening gown to Damson's cocktail dress.
  • 🕯️ Wild Fig & Cassis Melts: The Fruity Match. Both scents celebrate dark, rich fruits. Use the candle in the living room and the melts in the hallway for a home that smells like a luxury orchard.

⚠️ Safety Warning
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets, and flammable items. Place on a heat-resistant surface as the glass can become warm.
