PRODUCT DETAILS
Celebrate one of mythology’s most enduring love stories with this Achilles and Patroclus soy wax candle.
Inspired by Greek myth, romance, and the sunlit landscapes of the Mediterranean, this vegan-friendly candle blends bright citrus, soft florals, and warm sandalwood for an elegant, atmospheric scent.
Created as a tribute to Achilles and Patroclus, this fragrance feels like golden light on stone, sea air drifting through distant gardens, and memory lingering long after the story ends.
It opens with sparkling notes of lemon, litsea, orange, and bergamot, lifted by basil and eucalyptus with soft fruity nuances. At the heart, rose, jasmine, lily, ylang, and gardenia bloom gently before settling into a warm, graceful base of sandalwood and musk.
Romantic, radiant, and quietly ancient, it is a scent that feels both tender and timeless.
