The Obsidian Bloom: The Official Scent of Dangerous Confidence
Tired of fragrances that smell like they're trying too hard? Grit & Wick knows that genuine power is subtle, ancient, and undeniably compelling. Forget sweet innocence; The Obsidian Bloom is the scent of a secret kept and a resolve unbreakable.
This is a candle that doesn't just fill a room—it transforms it into an ancient altar carved from volcanic glass, demanding attention without ever shouting.
Scent Profile: Dark, Ancient, and Seductive
We've bottled the complexity of a timeless mystery, fusing deep resins with an unexpectedly sensual floral note to create something truly unforgettable:
Frangipani: Forget delicate, fleeting flowers. Here, Frangipani is rendered as a velvety, exotic floral heart that is rich and surprisingly seductive. It introduces a challenging, complex sweetness that is intriguing, not sugary.
Dragon's Blood (Mid/Base): This powerful, resinous aroma is the true core. It delivers a dark, earthy, and lightly smoky spice that is both ancient and mysterious. It's the scent of protection, power, and deep, resonant masculinity.
Myrrh (Base): A grounding, balsamic, and slightly woody resin that anchors the entire fragrance. Myrrh provides longevity and solemn depth, giving the scent a meditative, almost sacred quality that speaks to enduring strength.
Why You Need This
Light The Obsidian Bloom when you need your space to feel powerful, sophisticated, and utterly unique. It’s perfect for the evenings, for deep contemplation, or for setting an atmosphere that whispers of hidden knowledge and unwavering intent.
This candle proves that complexity is the ultimate masculine allure. It balances the sweetness of the bloom with the ironclad strength of the resin.
Grit & Wick: Darker. Deeper. Absolutely unforgettable.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
These aren't your average fruity candles—treat them with the respect they deserve to ensure a long life and maximum throw.
General Maintenance & Safety (The Rules)
- The First Burn: This is the most crucial step. When you first light your candle, allow the entire top surface of wax to melt completely to the edges of the container. This usually takes 2-4 hours, depending on the size. This prevents "tunneling" (where the wick burns straight down the middle) and ensures the candle burns evenly for its lifetime.
- Wick Trimming (The Must-Do): Before every single burn, trim the wick to 1/4 INCH (about 6 mm). Use a wick trimmer or nail clippers. A long wick causes mushrooming, black smoke, and fast burning.
- Burn Time Limit: Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Burning longer overheats the container and burns off the fragrance oil too quickly.
- Stop Point: Discontinue use when only 1/2 INCH (1.2 cm) of wax remains at the bottom. Burning past this point can lead to the glass overheating or cracking.
- Placement: Always burn your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, children, pets, and flammable materials (like curtains or papers).
