Category: Wms&Co.

A study in nocturnal botanicals—this perennial favorite captures the dialogue between violet's shadowed elegance and absinthe's mystique. Created by The Quiet Botanist, a distinguished floral atelier in Hudson NY, where botanical wisdom and refined craftsmanship intersect.

Top notes of anise, eucalyptus, and saffron lead to a heart of black violet and black currant, softened by basil's green clarity. The foundation rests on fennel, dark musk, tonka bean, and amber.

Hand-poured in NY using natural coconut wax and beeswax, this candle honors complex botanical signatures without phthalates or harmful chemicals found in conventional fragrance.

The large 14oz candle offers 80-90 hours of burn time and arrives in a printed botanical box with a signature oversized matchbook. The mini 3.5oz (approximately 20 hours burn time) comes in a printed botanical box—the same scent intelligence in different scale.

Samuel ★★★★★

I lit this candle during a stormy evening, and the violet note came through much softer and more nuanced than I expected. The burn is even with no tunneling, which I really appreciate.

Abigail ★★★★★

The absinthe note is surprisingly complex, not just a one-note gimmick. It mingles with the violet in a way that feels like a dark, sophisticated garden at midnight. Definitely buying another for the living room.

Lucy ★★★★★

The violet note is what sold me—it's moody and a little powdery without going grandma's attic. Burned it for about two hours and the whole room still smelled faintly of absinthe the next morning. Genuinely the first candle I've finished and immediately wanted a backup of.
