Festina Lente Home Candle – Il Viaggiatore

Warm, smoky scent that evokes mulled wine around a fireplace / 7.7 oz 

Festina Lente’s Il Viaggiatore candle features a wonderfully smoky, multidimensional, non-gender-specific scent with top notes of cloves, cinnamon, and bergamot; heart notes of incense, elemi, and patchouli; and a base of cedarwood, amber, and oak moss. This scent instantly brings warmth and intrigue to a room.

Festina Lente’s creator, Marta, describes Il Viaggiatore this way:
“After a long voyage, finally he opens the door. He is far away from home, but this place feels so familiar. In the warmth of a lit fireplace between the mingling of happy voices, the scent of cloves and cinnamon announce steaming glasses of mulled wine. The traveler feels already homesick for this place that has welcomed him, as if in a warm embrace.” 

The beautiful phthalate-free fragrance was developed by Italy’s most renowned nose, then blended into GMO-free soy wax with a cotton wick. Festina Lente’s classic glass container can be cleaned after you burn down the candle (it lasts about 50 hours) with a little vinegar, baking soda, dish soap, and hot water. Check out our blog for specific instructions.

Packaged in a pretty outer cylinder of easily-recycled cardboard and metal, this candle is an excellent gift for all genders. (So is the gorgeous Luxe version of the same scent.)
