Ecume de Mer | Groot geurkaars

I wasn't sure about a sea-inspired candle but the salt air opening won me over instantly. It fills my whole living room within twenty minutes and the leather and musk keep it from smelling like cheap cologne.

The leather and musk drydown is what sold me — it lingers for hours without being heavy. Burned it during a long bath and the whole bathroom smelled like warm skin and sea spray.

The salt air opening honestly caught me off guard at first, but once the leather and musk settled in it felt like standing on a pier at dusk. The scent throw is strong enough to fill my whole living room without even lighting it for long.
