Charles Farris has been making candles in England since 1845 — first for Westminster Abbey and St. Paul's Cathedral, now for the kind of homes that take a lit candle seriously. Laura and Vassar found these on a trip to the UK and brought them back knowing they'd be impossible to find anywhere closer to home. Hand-poured in rural Wiltshire using traditional techniques and blended by master perfumers, these are the candles you light on a Friday evening and find yourself thinking about all weekend.
This scent is deep and quietly compelling, inspired by the woodsmoke and aged leather of industrial London in the 1840s. Cedar, birch, and incense grounded in amber, with a lift of jasmine and dewy moss above. The one to reach for on a cold afternoon when the fire is going and there's nowhere else to be. 210g / 7.5oz. Burns 50+ hours.
