DURGA Concrete After Lightning Candle
A fresh scent, evocative of how it smells after rain. Electric crackle, downpour, panic grass, sizzling asphalt steam. Respite on muggy summer days.
"The scent after it rains is a favorite aromatic genre of mine—and many people as it turns out. Perfumers have a few tools to use in the category of ozone—or things that smell like water and air.
Geosmin is the scent molecule released from bacteria in dirt after it rains. What’s lovely, is that the Geosmin blends with different aromatics in different environments. Whereas in the forest it smells dank yet fresh, in the city you get the scent of hot asphalt and concrete quickly cooled by rain."200g. Approx 60 hours burn time. "
