TIBETAN MOUNTAIN TEMPLE

Vetiver and Indonesian Patchouli make up the base of this tranquil, incense-like blend. Chinese ginger sits lightly in the middle while orange provides the lift for these distinct essential oils. Vetiver symbolizes grounding strength for those who are stressed or have lost connection with their inner being. It also serves as a symbol of the timeless and eternal nature of existence. Blended with the strength and power of patchouli, and the grounding properties of ginger, this candle is very centering and powerful, yet the fragrance remains sweet and subtle. Vetiver, native to India, is known for its resinous earthy overtones and complimentary notes of violet, wood, roots, and soil. Its name in Indonesia, where it is cultivated today, translates as "fragrant root."

The orange color of this candle is reminiscent of the saffron robes worn by Buddhist monks and its fragrance will call to mind the incense that permeates the halls of temples throughout Asia.
