Apothecary Candle - "Snake Oil" - Absinthe

Let the Green Fairy soothe what ails you! Snake Oil is a miracle cure that will surely make your constitution strong. With added absinthe, you’ll be able to live for years! 

Absinthe was used for medicinal purposes for many years - this candle takes classic absinthe scents and combines them into a cure-all candle for all your woes. This candle is a spicy aromatic blend of star anise, fennel, ceylon cinnamon, cassia, fresh green herbal notes with base notes of amber and woods. This transportive scent is poured into vintage green glass.

The Apothecary is a line of candles inspired by patent medicines of the 1800s. Without having any proof to their claims, charlatans and faux “doctors” were able to travel from town to town selling their miracle cure-alls. These candles’ “miracle claims” are obviously made in jest, but the scents are reminiscent of the potions of yore.
