Nota Bene Pomander Scented Candle
-
A wonderful Pomander scented candle evoking the feeling of winter and festivity from the moment you enter a room. Think of a sweet orange studded with cloves and cinnamon drying slowly as it hangs in front of a glowing midwinter hearth. Mixed, poured and wrapped by hand with tactile letterpress-printed labels in a small English workshop, using only natural, botanical fragrances and wax for a clean, even burn.
The fragrances used in this candle are composed entirely in-house, using only natural essential oils, and like all honest natural products, will develop and evolve when used. Inspired by the smells of English life past and present, designed to offer an olfactory re-imagination of fragrant Christmas pomanders.
Supplied with a lid to keep fragrance in and dust out when not in use. Approximately 30 hours burn time. -
Nota Bene Wares was formed by Matthew Brooks in 2012 in Nottingham, England. It was bourne of a passion for hand-produced, thoughtfully designed objects that are simple, hardwearing and beautiful. This is overlaid with a great interest in history and in particular the history of everyday life and of design, and it is their intention that this is reflected in the products they sell. However, whilst you will see historical references in their products, they are by no means slaves to the past; they simply resurrect the bits that are today refreshingly different by contrast to the sea of disinteresting, ubiquitous items which fill our daily lives.
They will only ever use materials which are beautiful in their integrity such as pure essential oils, tactile, imperfect recycled greyboard, and rustling, opaque waxed paper, and all of their packaging is laboriously printed on an old fashioned letterpress, just because it gives a slightly embossed finish which can't ever be achieved through using digital printing.
The fragrances used in their scented goods are composed entirely in-house, using only natural essential oils and botanical extracts. They are inspired by the smells of English life past and present, and are designed to offer an olfactory re-imagination of warming woodland bonfires, fragrant Christmas pomanders, the cold stone and cut herbs of the still room or a brush past the scented leaves of the parlour geranium.
