The Elixir of Life is a Wonder Cure! It'll cure disease, smooth wrinkles,
remove stains, double your tax return, and prolong life!
An elixir is purported to be a magical potion capable of extending life, curing
common ailments, or any number of miraculous claims. Many patent medicines used
poppy, or opium, as the main ingredient. While it definitely won't extend your
life, opium poppy is one of the very first medicinal compounds ever isolated in
pure form.
The Elixir candle has top notes of pomegranate and orange, mid-notes of cherry
blossoms and opium poppies, and is rounded out with a blend of black
peppercorn, cardamom, and coca.
This transportive scent is poured into vintage amber glass. The ethereal glow
of the candle's flicker through the amber glass adds to the redolent ambiance.
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 snake oils, nostrums, and
miracle cure-alls. When making these candles, I looked at the actual
ingredients that were used in those miracle nostrums and used them in this
line. These candles miracle claims are obviously made in jest, but the scents
are reminiscent of the potions of yore. Pleasant aromas are the only genuine
claims this alchemist will make!
