prince of the forest - keepsake citrine
the scent
frankincense | myrrh | cedarwood | camphor | orange
my homage to the dark mystery & strength of the winter months, inspired by one of my favourite disney classics.
deep notes of frankincense & myrrh enveloped in cedarwood transport you among the quiet snowfall of a hushed winter forest, where, with luck, you might catch a rare glimpse of an illusive protector.
the story
'a hush spreads over the forest, as the first winter snows begin to fall in earnest. the earth sleeps, and the sky covers her in a dazzling white blanket, bare trees collecting little pillows on their arms, the ever-watchful owl echoing through the dark.
ahead, a rustling within the evergreen cuts through the silence. an icy crunch announces a rare arrival. the forest holds its breath.
a towering stag emerges from the depths. vast antlers reach towards the sky before curving in graceful arcs to frame the proud face, shaped by age and strength. a striking crown to signify his regal station.
he is the great prince of the forest, the wisest and mightiest of all forest dwellers.
respected, revered.
he pauses at forest’s edge. a moment passes, an eternity. then he turns back in silence, protector of his realm.’

candle care
best practices for longest lasting burn
- always keep an eye on candle while burning
- do not burn for longer than 4 hours at a time
- trim wick to 1/4” above wax before every burn (or pinch off burnt wick)
- let melt pool reach entire surface for first burn for best longevity
- keep open flame away from pets, children, drafts, flammable materials
- stop burning when 1/2” of wax remains
after use care
- warm wax is easy to scoop out with paper towel or spoon. toss old wax & wick/wick clip in trash (not sink!)
- wash jar & lid with hot soapy water
- repurpose as flower vase, spice jar, trinket holder, anything you like!
