Absinthe Candle - Natural History Museum Edition
Artemisia Absinthium
Absinthe is a perennial shrub native to continental, temperate zones in Europe, Asia and North Africa. Called 'the green fairy,' absinthe was reputed to provide creative powers, and before being banned was the infamous muse that inspired writers like Emile Zola and Paul Verlaine, painters Vincent Van Gogh and Edgar Degas.
PERFUME-
An aromatic, green fragrance The scent is powerful, green, plantlike. Green notes of galbanum and petitgrain mix with the aniseed scent of the absinthe absolute, supported by basil and mint. A woody base note weaves through the wake of this scented, green bouquet. Coloured illustrations from botanical plates dating from the 19th Century appear through the matte glass, greige tinted. In the center of the octagonal label, we find a cluster of Absinthe’s flowers printed in gold embossing
A plant with an intense vegetal aroma that unveils a green and aromatic fragrance softened by a woody base note.
