Half Agony, Half Hope
“You pierce my soul. I am in half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are not gone forever”
— Persuasion
A letter written and rewritten. The ink drying on an irreversible profession of love. Bergamot opens bright and barely composed, then gives way to a black ink and paper accord — the smell of a man crumpling in the most magnificent way. Cedar from a hope chest that’s been gathering dust. Oakmoss and amber, like a breath held painfully for eight long years in the hope they will reciprocate those three little words.

CANDLE CARE / SAFETY
- FIRST BURN : allow enough burn time for a full and even melt pool to form. It doesn’t need to go allll the way to the edge, but closer than Creed, k? (*^ ‿ *)
- Always burn on a fire-resistant surface away from any drafts, children & pets.
- TRIM DAT WICK! Wooden wicks are not self-trimming, like cotton wicks — before re-lighting your candle, use a wick trimmer, nail clipper, or your fingers to remove previously charred material.
- Keep away from extreme heat and moisture.
- Optimal burn sessions are 2-4 hours - no more than 6 hours.
- Do not burn to the bitter end - you’re ready for a refill once you hit the last 1/4 inch of wax remaining in the jar!
