The Foras Candle: Scents

Lime Basil and Mandarin:
A fresh vibrant aroma blends sparkling grapefruit with armoise, mandarin, orange and zingy lime to a heart which marries jasmine, lavender, lily of the valley, violet and basil whilst a warm rich base of Cedarwood, amber, patchouli, sandalwood and moss completes the scent.

Vanilla Lime Sorbet:
Muted hues of citrus at the top with lemon and lime, blend with rich fruits and spice for a gourmand heart, as vanilla, tonka and musks breeze through the base.

Red Amber and Clove:
A warming tonic of juicy citrus fruits infused with smooth cinnamon and spicy clove, the aroma of rich creamy Tonka bean, smooth musk and golden Amber completes this luxurious scent.

Sparkling Spice:
A gorgeous fragrance that opens with sparkling wine, orange, mandarin and apple, stirring into clove and cinnamon on a base of cedarwood, musk and vanilla.

Chapel:
A warm spicy mix of clove and cinnamon leads to floral patchouli, ylang ylang, lavender, rose and geranium, with a base of labdanum, cedarwood, vanilla and smoky musk.

Sea Salt & Fig:
The fig fruit creates an unique, chic and unusual fruity aroma. The slightly watery aspect of the fruit gives the scent a fresh feeling emphasised in the top with notes of mandarin, grapefruit and peach. In the heart the green aspect of the fruit is highlighted through the infusion of jasmine and ginger. Patchouli and coumarin in the base heightens the scent with a subtle spice whilst the combination of cedarwood and amber deepens for a lasting and memorable wake.
