Tuberose & Jasmine 

Sweet and alluring, our Harlot candle is the olfactory quintessence of femme fatales and sensual women alike. As the spicy top note of Italian bergamot dissolves, the robust heart notes of white rose and jasmine come to the fore. Then, tropical tuberose unapologetically drifts into the space with its titillating suggestion of intimacy. In fact, it was said that, to the Victorians tuberose was so agonisingly seductive that women were warned not to get too close lest an accidental whiff rouse daring desire. This trio of strong, floral notes then rests gently on a bed of hushed vanilla flower, leaving behind a lingering aromatic autograph of bold and dazzling femininity. 

NOTES
Top: Italian bergamot
Heart: Tropical tuberose blossom, White rose petals, Jasmine buds

French Leather & Cedarwood

Fragrance, like any good book, has a beginning, a middle and an end. As you turn to the very first page of Hemingway’s classic, The Old Man and the Sea, high notes of French leather call you to exhale deeply and wholly. An open fire flickers and rich, creamy vanilla surrounds, while you curl up into the sofa, sinking deeper into this warm, welcome moment. Then, a spicy hint of cedarwood arises, inviting you to take in the fictions and fables that dear Ernest tells of luck and of life. 

Notes:

Coconut & Mandarin 

This fragrance beckons from the shores of Avalon Beach, our place, the one that we call home. The top note of mandarin is as fresh and joyous as summertime feels, when toes are sandy, and skin is sun-kissed. When the sun is high, a sea breeze blows over those paddling out into the fray, sending with it whispers and heart notes of frangipani, coconut and jasmine from the headland. Then, the dreamy aromas of vanilla and white musk surround, while the sweet waves crash, and the sun sets over warm rockpools and sandstone cliffs. 

NOTES
Top: Mandarin
Heart: Coconut, Jasmine, Frangipani, Orange flower
Base: Vanilla, White musk

Clove Bud & Waterlily

This bright and beguiling fragrance rejoices in the beauty, splendour, and complexity of women. At its apex, rich and spicy clove bud dances with warm ginger root and sensual orange leaf. At its heart, femininity in all its glory is boldly celebrated through an intoxicating concoction of ylang ylang, rose blossom and lightly sweet waterlily. The inherent strength and warmth of women is embodied in the balmy base notes of black musk, earthy cedarwood and creamy vanilla. In our eyes, fellow woman and muse Frida Kahlo said it best when she remarked, “I am my own muse.” So, this one is for women, by women, a beautiful way to come back to yourself.

Rose & Sandalwood

Oscar Wilde’s, The Nightingale & The Rose, tells the tale of a selfless nightingale who sacrifices herself on the thorn of a rose so that true love can prevail for somebody else. Paying homage to its intoxicating namesake aroma, this fragrance presents a feminine bouquet of Persian rose and violet leaf that comes instantly to the fore. As its first impression dispels, it reveals a hint of bright, spicy bergamot intermingled with heady musk and sweet, woody oud. Then, subtle undertones of sandalwood and warm Moroccan cedar emerge, as the aroma of the most romantic of all flowers lingers, a fitting ode to our protagonist’s unshakeable belief in true love.
