Velvet Rose & Oud Scented Candle
Welcome to the scent of pure seduction. If you are looking to transform the atmosphere of a room instantly, 'Velvet Rose & Oud' is the answer. It is our most opulent, textural fragrance—a magnetic blend that captures the essence of the darkest Damask Rose, wrapped in smoky Oud wood and spiked with a hint of clove and sweet praline.
This is "liquid velvet" in a jar. Enhanced by a sustainable FSC-Certified Wooden Wick, it creates a multi-sensory experience. As the flame dances, the wick gently crackles like a miniature fireplace, filling your home with a rich, luxurious aroma that feels like a warm embrace on a dark evening.

🥀 The Scent Journey
This is a complex, evolving fragrance that unfolds as it burns:
-
🌹 Top Notes: Rose, Geranium, Saffron, and Pepper.
(The first impression: a burst of rich florals and exotic spice.) -
🪵 Mid Notes: Rose, Clove, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Palmarosa.
(The heart: warm, spicy, and deeply floral.) -
🔥 Base Notes: Oud Wood, Musk, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Praline.
(The lingering trail: smoky, sweet, and velvety.)
🔥 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 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 complex rose and oud 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 floral with other deep, moody scents:
- 🍯 Dark Honey & Tobacco: The Masculine Match. If 'Velvet Rose' is the feminine side of luxury, 'Dark Honey' is the masculine counterpart. Both share a rich, smoky depth that works beautifully in the same home.
- 🕯️ Dark Amber & Ginger Lily: The Spa Match. Combine the rose notes with the exotic lily and amber for a whole-house fragrance that smells like a boutique hotel.
