Wald - Rapeseed Wax Nomad Candle
ABOUT : Cycling trips totalling thousands of kilometers inspired me to craft a loving ode to Europe. The memories of the scents of forests, flowers, herbs and fields found throughout our beautiful continent are brought together in this collection. The minimalist tin makes this candle lightweight and the perfect travel companion.
Our Nomad fragrances reveal an intimate glimpse into this unique cycling trip that my beloved one and I made through Europe. They will take you from the island of Zakynthos to the mainland of Greece, past the marshes of Montenegro and past the waterfalls in Bosnia, the spicy gardens in Italy and the fresh Alps, to return to beautiful Utrecht via the French wheat fields.
An Ode to Europe with European rapeseed wax - For the Nomad Collection Brandt use 100% rapeseed wax. This wax is made in Europe from the oil of the rapeseed plant. The most beautiful base for our European ode! Rapeseed wax is also a sustainable ingredient. Bees love the early flowering rapeseed and the crop has a positive impact on the soil and this beautiful plant with its yellow flowers are also good for the soil.
FRAGRANCE : Wald takes you into a misty forest of dense woods, bottoms full of moss sometimes so bright green in color it looks like neon. Past the babbling brooks along its banks and the freshly cut grass of its inhabitants. The scent of earthy oak moss, sweet pine needle and spicy rosemary* fill the air. And sometimes, as the sun breaks through the fog, the drops of dew sparkle on the leaves and leave you enchanted.
