Dear Reader | Candle No. 16

This one smells like gliding across endless bookshelves, atop a mahogany ladder with brass wheels. You know the one.

It opens with the crisp flutter of old parchment and the faint sweetness of faded ink. The air is steeped in dust and daydreams, the hush of a library after closing. The aroma of antique books drifts through the quiet, mingling with sueded silk and scrolls worn soft by time. This scent is heirlooms and history, like a borrowed novel with notes in the margins.

Light Dear Reader when you crave the scent of story, when you miss the comfort of paper and promise, or when you want to be reminded that everyone has a story to tell.
