Apothecary Collection: Haunted Waters

The Smell of Fear, Apothecary Collection: HAUNTED SEAS,
Is an olfactory experience as well as a visual one. Delightfully wrapped in the most dreadfully bleak tissue paper, it slid out of the box it was entombed in, with ease. A smattering of poofy particles of foam, kept this pure white candle safe from the ravages of the Seven Seas on its way to me. Enveloped in a tidy blue candleholder, made from the ancient glass once used by Davy Jones for one of his helmsman for a glass eye, after an encounter with a wretched wraith of the depths, this candle’s powerful essence was kept secured by snugly-mated cork topper. Upon opening this piece of enchanted cork, a scent which reminded me of the distant crashing of waves, in the darkness of the Indian Ocean, mixed with the nuances of mystic moss and hints of the salt from the bruised back of a Siren, found their way spiraling into this here nose. As I lurched forward with the flame of my trusty Zippo, and lighting the wick, I noticed the way the candle’s flame, became an eldritch white through the nautically painted glass of the candle holder. Beautiful to display, and eerily relaxing to smell, this candle is worth every scent! Thank you for the care placed into its craftsmanship! Fair winds, and following haunted seas!
