Perfume of Precious Tears by Alexandra Carlin

 

LabSolue presents its olfactory celebration of Myrrh.

Native to the Middle East and known since the ancient Egyptians for its ability to reconnect the spirit with the earthly world, it is a natural resin with an exquisite balsamic and aromatic scent from the Commiphora Myrrha thorny trees. It presents itself as tear-shaped gold droplets, as it forms from the entire plant, from the roots, to the trunk, to the highest branches, and is collected by hand. A deep and mystical perfume, which draws from the precious tears of the Myrrh Tree. An intermediary between heaven and earth.

An Essence made of Myrrh Absolute and Myrrh Essential Oil, combined with the enveloping and spicy notes of Tolu and Fir Balsam.

Curiosity: the myth of Myrrh is narrated by Ovid in the Metamorphoses. It concerns Myrrha's carnal love for her father, the king of Paphos. A desperate and uncontrollable passion, which she cannot free herself from, to the point that she tries to take her own life. The gods accept her plea and transform her into a tree. Not holding back her tears, drops of scented resin emerge from the bark, taking her name.

SUGGESTIONS FOR USE
Using the candle: To get the most out of the candle, place it on a flat, heat-resistant surface and let it burn for 2 or 3 hours at a time, until the entire surface melts. This will prevent voids from forming in the wax later. Never leave the candle burning unattended and do not let it burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Do not move the lit candle or when the wax is still liquid. Never place the lit candle in the presence of air currents, nor in direct contact with precious or flammable surfaces. Keep the candle out of the reach of children and pets and away from curtains or other objects.

Taking care of the wick: Regularly cut the wick to the ideal length of 1 cm, to avoid the emission of smoke and the fall of the wick into the wax. After use, when the wax is still melted, if necessary gently recenter the wick to ensure uniform consumption of the wax and that the glass does not overheat at the next ignition. The wick and flame must not touch the container.

Re-using the candle: Do not burn the candle to the end; a candle is finished and should not be relit when at least 5 mm of unmelted wax remains on the bottom. At this point, it begins its second life: the glass container can be cleaned and reused as a water glass, vase for small plants and flowers, brush or pencil holder, holder for smaller candles…

This candle requires meticulous work to balance perfume concentrate, blend of waxes, shape and size of glass container, diameter and weaving of cotton wick. All to ensure exceptional olfactory qualities and optimal burning.

The container is made of glass in Italy, designed to last over time, reusable and recyclable. The wax is produced and hand-poured in Italy and does not contain artificial dyes, its color is due exclusively to the natural ingredients of the essence.
