The scent
Peony, Rose, Jasmine, Orange, Lime and Amber
The Mystic is a dreamy tribute to the Middle East, where love, hope, and prosperity bloom in a whirlwind of floral romance. This enchanting fragrance blends the delicate allure of peony, jasmine, and rose with the warmth of amber and a sparkling touch of orange and lime. A scent that captivates with its playful charm, evoking the magic of endless possibilities and timeless elegance.

This candle's job isn't over when the scent is done. After a quick wash, my life as a insulated coffee mug has just begun!
