FAQ:
Q: Are the floral scents (like Lucy or Mina) too "perfumey" for a horror fan?
A: Not at all. While notes like Jasmine and Heliotrope provide an ethereal beauty, we’ve grounded them with "dead" notes like dying embers, bitter black tea, and sharp anise. These are atmospheric florals—they smell more like a haunted garden at midnight, not your grandma's perfume.
Q: The scent notes list "Smoke" and "Tobacco"—will these candles be overwhelming?
A: We prioritize "mood" over "power." While certain notes are deep and resinous, the smoke and tobacco notes are designed to mimic a lingering atmosphere—like a fire that has recently gone out or a distant pipe—rather than an abrasive cloud. They provide a sophisticated, lingering "haunt" rather than an overpowering scent.
Q: Does this collection lean more toward "Romance" or "Horror"?
A: Much like the original novel, it is a perfect marriage of both. We’ve captured the "Love Eternal" through rich fruits and layered base notes, while the "Horror" is found in things like earthy moss, sharp pepper, and leather notes. It’s designed for anyone who believes that the most terrifying stories are often the most beautiful.
