Dark Bloom Candle (Spring Equinox Ritual Candle)

NZ$25.00

Born from the heart of the Dark Bloom Collection, this candle embodies the essence of transformation — where shadow meets bloom, and beauty thrives in the dark. Hand-poured in small batches with blackened soy wax, each candle reflects the gothic elegance and quiet ritualism at the core of Celestia’s Charms.

As the flame burns, notes of grapefruit and bergamot lift like morning light over a heart of black orchid, tiare, lilac, and geranium, grounded in the warmth of clove bud, petitgrain, tonka, and sandalwood. The result is a complex fragrance — at once floral and resinous, balancing softness and strength.

Each candle is finished with sculpted crescent and floral wax adornments, symbolising bloom and renewal. As they melt into the wax, they reveal the beauty of change — a gentle reminder that transformation can be both dark and divine.
