Our Damson & Rose fragrance is a complex Fruity & Floral blend that evolves beautifully as it burns, mimicking the transition of light in a cottage garden.

• 🍇 Top Notes: Damson Plum, Raspberry & Lemon. The "head notes" provide a juicy, tart first hit that is instantly mouth-watering and refreshing.
• 🌹 Mid Notes: Velvet Rose, Jasmine & Cassis. The "heart notes" bring a rich, powdery floral elegance that softens the initial fruitiness, creating a sophisticated middle layer.
• 🪵 Base Notes: Patchouli, Musk & Amber. The "dry down" is warm, earthy, and opulent—providing a grounding finish that lingers long after the candle is extinguished.

To ensure your candle performs with the same reliability as our heritage seeds, follow these essential care steps:

The First Burn: Light the wooden wick across its entire width. Allow the wax to melt all the way to the glass edges (usually 2-3 hours). This prevents "tunnelling" and ensures you use every gram of your hand-poured wax.

The "Pinch": Before re-lighting, the wick must be kept short (3-4mm). Once the candle is cool, simply pinch off the black charred wood from the top of the wick. A short, clean wick provides the best crackle and prevents soot.

Safety: Never leave a burning candle unattended. Place on a heat-resistant surface and keep away from draughts, children, and pets.

Pair this rich scent with other opulent or warm fragrances from our Norfolk collection:

• 🌹 Velvet Rose & Oud: The Rose Duo. If you love the floral note in Damson & Rose, try the darker, smokier version with Velvet Rose & Oud. It's the "evening gown" to Damson's "cocktail dress."
• 🍃 Wild Fig & Cassis Melts: The Fruity Match. Both scents celebrate dark, rich fruits. Use the candle in the living room and the melts in the hallway for a home that smells like a luxury orchard.
