Made from black stoneware, the Augustine candle vessel is fired in an English pottery and poured with fragranced wax. After burning the candle, the vessel can be repurposed as a vase for flowers or a decorative receptacle. Augustine brings to mind tradition, cool marble, and rain-drenched earth. Its many undertones feel ensconced in a bygone era, one of opulent hallways and heels clacking softly down echoing corridors. Top notes of frankincense and cistus hang aloft in an age-old tapestry of aromas, while a warm heart of agarwood and vetiver open to a base of amber, labdanum, and musk. It is a scent that deepens as one leans into it, a rich blend of notes that sit on the ruminative cusp between the classical and the modern, embracing both Apollonian austerity and Dionysian fervour.
