MIDNIGHT RITUAL | Scented Candle Set
Midnight Ritual tells the story of a single night in three acts. It begins with a kiss from which there is no return. It leads through the velvet silence of eternal sleep. It ends with one final toast raised in the glow of dying candles.
The ritual opens with Death Kiss, a story enclosed within a glass skull, telling of a forbidden encounter between love and death. The smoke of church incense intertwines with the heavy, tempting scent of flowers laid at the foot of the altar, while a cool, metallic note of blood leaves a trace of sin upon the lips.
Then comes Eternal Sleep. Its fragrance leads into a velvet lined coffin, where perfume preserved on the skin after a final encounter still lingers. Here, blood grows cold beneath a soft, balsamic sweetness.
The ritual closes with The Last Toast, a candle concealed within a goblet. When the prayers fall silent, the time comes for one final toast. The aroma of deep red wine intertwines with cool violets, settling upon an ancient cedar table. A metallic note of blood cuts through the sweetness of ripe grapes, leaving you to wonder what truly fills the goblet.
Each candle creates its own world of fragrance, yet only together do they reveal the complete story of Midnight Ritual. Light them individually to discover each chapter of the story, or burn all three together to create the full atmosphere of the ritual: smoky, velvety, wine-dark, and dangerously sensual.
The set includes:
-
Death Kiss: church incense • patchouli • decaying wood
-
Eternal Sleep: leather accord • sandalwood • rockrose
-
The Last Toast: italian red grapes • violet • cedar
-
Collection signature: metallic blood drop accord
The remaining fragrance notes will reveal themselves only when Midnight Ritual is lit, and its secret will belong exclusively to you.

PLEASE NOTE:
Each candle is handmade, so the color of the wax, placement of decorations, and minor details may vary slightly from the photos.
These natural variations make every piece unique.
- Before lighting the candle, remove all loose decorations from its surface.
Dried rose buds, lavender, moss, and the resin skull and bones must not remain in the melted wax pool while the candle is burning.
- Burn the candle only under supervision and keep it away from children, pets, drafts, and flammable materials.
- To prevent tunneling, allow the entire surface of the candle to melt during the first burn.
- Do not burn the candle for longer than 4 hours at a time. This will help prevent the wick from becoming submerged.
- Before each burn, trim the wick to 0.2–0.4 in / 0.5–1 cm. This will help the candle burn with a clean, even flame.
- Discontinue use when approximately 0.4–0.6 in / 1–1.5 cm of wax remains to help prevent the vessel from cracking.
