Flat Cap & Pipe
Flat Cap & Pipe
Scent Profile: Heady sweet top notes of Tobacco, Amaretto and Honey mingle with dry Cedar, Oakmoss and Camphor middle notes, while Vanilla, Oak and Benzoin base notes soften the overall effect.
The Inspiration: Do you have memories of an uncle, dad or grandfather who smoked? And do you always think of this person when you smell the sweet scent of cherry pipe tobacco? Me too. My grandfather was a lifelong smoker - sometimes cigars or pipes, but mostly cigarettes. I didn’t care for most of it, but the unlit cherry pipe tobacco was something I liked. He was nearly deaf and didn’t talk a lot. He would sit quietly near a window and smoke. I remember being fascinated by the lazy movement of smoke rising, the light shining through the ribbons of smoky air with a diaphanous effect. He would smoke and watch TV shows with his hearing aid volume set at zero. When anyone would try to get his attention, he would just utter a confused, “heh?” and point at his ears to indicate he couldn’t hear you. Persistence was necessary to engage him in conversation. But he did care deeply for my grandmother and would tune in for her. In my memory, I can still see my grandfather wearing his flat cap perched at a jaunty angle and sitting behind the wheel of his Buick, ready to take my grandmother to work, or to church, or wherever she needed to go.
Flat Cap & Pipe offers an air of nostalgia with its mingled scent of sweet tobacco, dry cedar, and a hint of vanilla. The 9.5oz candle is made using using coconut apricot wax, and teh 3.7oz travel tin is made with natural US grown soy wax. The hot throw is subtle but will still fill an appropriately sized room for the candle (i.e., a 9.5oz candle in a medium room; a 3.7oz candle in a small sized room).
