Tatine 8 Ounce, 50 Hour Natural Wax Candle- City of Night
An ode to the distinctive and mysterious spirit of Jim Morrison. Or just another lost angel?
With ghostly notes of dark hinoki oil and charred vetiver blended with cypress and fir needle to create a deep fragrant resin to evoke the salty, sweaty, animalic pheromone scent of Morrison's armpits. Male sweat holds a seductive sex appeal, achieved with the addition of black pepper and evocative woody floral accords finished with velvety leather and oaked whiskey—mystical, dark, and intense, the smell of a man with a heady sensuality.
Each 8 oz. natural wax candle is poured into smoke grey, mouth blown glassware exclusive to Tatine, crafted to be drink safe. Gently hand wash or place the glass in the dishwasher for use at your next celebration and let it live uniquely on.
When burned properly, you will enjoy up to 50 hours of a delicate fragrant atmosphere.

Tatine candles are created in a studio housed in the former Hammond Organ Factory in Chicago. Here they strive to bring inspiring olfactory sensations to life with intention. They consider each candle an individual handcrafted, poetic object.
A note on how to burn your Tatine candle: On the first lighting, burn your candle for one hour for each inch of its diameter until you have a full melt pool. Candles have a "memory", so the first few burns will influence how it burns in the remainder of its life. By allowing your candles to have a "memory burn", you are actually increasing the candles burn time, and by allowing a full melt pool to form from edge to edge of the glass, you increase the scent throw. Additionally, at each subsequent lighting you should trim the wick to 1/4" for best quality.
