The Eternal Flame, Noir Resin
Please note, this item will begin shipping out on 9/15
Every Greek household maintained a sacred fire dedicated to Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, and the first obligation of the day was to tend it. The flame was never allowed to go out. If it did, it could not simply be relit. It had to be renewed through ritual, carried from a neighboring hearth or from the sacred fire kept burning in the prytaneion, the civil hearth at the center of every Greek city. The fire connected the private home to the public world, the mortal to the divine, the present moment to something that had been long burning.
The Scent
Dark. Warm. Skin-close.
Noir Resin opens with depth of labdanum, a resin harvested from the cistus plant in Provence since antiquity. Sandalwood settles underneath it, creamy and grounding. Vanilla moves through, adding warmth without sweetness.
Candle Details
Hand poured in small batches. Nothing synthetic. Nothing artificial.
100% Organic Beeswax
Steam-distilled Certified Organic Non-GMO and Wildcrafted Essential Oils and CO2 Extracts
Cherry Wood Wick (producing a soothing, fireplace-like crackle and a wide, dancing flame)
Cruelty free. No animal testing. No animal-derived ingredients
365 ml
40-60 Hours of Burn Time
Made in the USA
Ingredients
Cera flava (beeswax)*, Citus ladaniferus (labdanum) essential oil*, Santalum album (Indonesian sandalwood) essential oil⁺, Vanilla planifolia (vanilla) CO2 extract*
*Certified Organic
⁺Wildcrafted, unsprayed, aged 6 years
How to Use
The first burn matters. Allow the wax to melt to the full edge of the vessel before extinguishing (approximately 2 to 3 hours). This sets the memory of the candle and prevents tunneling on every burn after.
Trim the wick to 3/16 of an inch before each use. Burn on a heat-resistant surface. Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Keep the lid on when not in use to preserve the scent and protect the wax. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
The Story
The labdanum in this candle comes from a distillery in Provence that has been tending plants since 1993. Their process uses lower temperatures than standard steam distillation, preserving the molecular complexity of the plant in a way most suppliers cannot. The sandalwood is sourced from Indonesia, unsprayed and aged 6 years before distillation. The vanilla is extracted from organically grown pods in Uganda through one of the most rigorous small-batch suppliers in the industry. The beeswax comes from hives that sit at the center of sixteen square miles of organic, pesticide-free land, managed according to organic beekeeping standards that support healthy bee colonies.
Every ingredient was chosen because of what it isn’t as much as what it is. No paraffin. No synthetic fragrance. No phthalates. Nothing that shouldn’t be burning in your home.
