The Voynich Manuscript is a story that captivated the gang, and we immediately knew it was a scent we needed to partner with Ghost Poppy to bring to life. Imagine yourself, peaceful and curiously reading an ancient manuscript in the air-controlled Beinecke Library on the campus of Yale. The room is full of books bound in leather, and the scent fills the room as you sit ready to explore the manuscripts' vellum pages. With the turn of each page, hints of bergamot and eucalyptus erupt from its seams as you try to decipher the book's hidden messages. Scents that not only capture the room where this ancient book is stored, but also deepen the mystery. 

The Story Behind The Scent:

Locked away at Yale’s Beinecke Library in Connecticut is the world’s most mysterious book, The Voynich Manuscript. The ancient artifact is packed with unknown symbols, bizarre plants, and cosmic charts. For centuries, the manuscript has baffled scholars, spies, and codebreakers. Some believe this manuscript is an ancient hoax dating back to the 1400s, while others believe it contains the remains of a civilization's lost knowledge. Either way, its contents remains undephipherable to current experts and technology. Also, most likely aliens.

Ingredients

All candles are made with 100% domestically-grown soy wax, fragrance oils, and organic cotton-core wicks. The fragrances we use are paraben-free, phthalate-free, and are never tested on animals.

How to use

Following Candle Care helps to ensure product quality + longevity. We highly recommend following each of the following steps:

Trim your candle's wick to 1/4" before each lighting or once your candle has cooled.

Never attempt to trim a burning candle.

Discard the snipped portion in the trash; never leave wick trimmings in your candle jar.

The wick should always remain centered and away from the sides of the vessel.

Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the jar during each burn to prevent tunneling.

 

Safety first - because candles contain a small flame, we encourage following these rules:

Never leave a candle burning unattended, near a draft, or in reach of children or pets.

Don't burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time.

Stop burning your candle when only 1/4" of wax remains.

Do not pick up a burning candle or immediately after it's been blown out.

Protect the surface underneath the candle no matter the material.
