Neroli & myrtle CANDYSPIKE SOY WAX CANDLE
Neroli & myrtle CANDYSPIKE SOY WAX CANDLE
Neroli and myrtle combine in a Mediterranean bliss of warm nights, fairy-lit caffe bars, and scented trees. Blended for Mimi Hammill by collaborative partner Claremont Studio, this fantasy of far away places has been created within the tiny radius of our independent businesses in central Aberdeen.
Presented in a stunning amber tempered glass, the candle comes wrapped in coordinating tissue, a white presentation gift box and an outer cardboard mailer box. A CandySpike patterned ribbon completes the unboxing experience.
CandySpike
CandySpike is a series of Mimi Hammill patterns for 2021 that represent the sequence of nucleotides for a certain novel zoonotic virus you might have heard of. The ribbon shows a tiny section of the viral genetic code (the first part of location MT649402.1 to be precise) for the virus’ infamous spike protein. The spike protein is the bit that vaccines are “teaching” our immune systems to recognise. So the spike protein is kind of a big deal and well worth immortalising in beautiful colours. Continuing the fantasy holiday theme, I have coded the nucleotide sequence using hues associated with some of my dream destinations: Majorelle Blue, Venetian Red, Nyboder Yellow, and Mediterranean Blue.
Ingredients
200ml candle, approx 36 hours burn time. 100% natural soy wax candle containing the following essential oils: Myrtle (Myrtus Communis) and Neroli (Citrus aurantium var. amara). Handpoured in small batches in Aberdeen, Scotland.
Reuse & Recycle
The cardboard gift box and mailing box are unbranded so that you can reuse them if you wish. If not, they can be recycled. The amber glass is a food safe water glass - when your candle is finished, place it in the freezer for a couple of hours to make remaining wax easier to remove. Dispose of all remaining wax in the bin, wash the glass thoroughly, and add it to your kitchen collection.
