Salvia Officinalis Botanical Candle

Sage has been asked to do a remarkable number of things over the centuries. Making your house smell good may be the least complicated.

Barratt Riley’s Salvia Officinalis begins with sage and rosemary, then gets considerably more interesting. Lemon and grapefruit sharpen the green herbal notes, geranium softens them, and frankincense, cedarwood, and palo santo bring in something deeper, woody, and faintly smoky. It smells botanical in the literal sense:  leaves, herbs, citrus, resin, and wood, all somehow agreeing to be in the same room. The fragrance is made entirely from pure botanical extracts and poured into a natural coconut wax blend with a cotton wick. No synthetic fragrance, just an unusually ambitious collection of plants doing what plants apparently do when you put the right ones together.

About the Brand:  Barratt Riley & Co.

Barratt Riley & Co. takes plants considerably more seriously than most people take plants. The Los Angeles fragrance house builds its botanical collection around essential oils, plant extracts, thoughtfully sourced waxes, and an unusually specific interest in what leaves, flowers, woods, herbs, and resins can become when somebody starts paying very close attention.
