Memento Mori—"remember you must die." This latin proverb and philosophical theme has been extensively explored in the arts, relying on visual symbolism and funerary motifs to serve as a reminder of life's fleeting nature.

While the message may appear grim, it is a call to action; a supplication not to toil in fear of the inevitable, but to wander down and ignite every unknown corridor this precious life presents us with.

Notes of: dark musk, stone walls, crumbling earth and garlands of ivy vines. As the incense smoulders, woodsmoke and burning resins smother what once was cold and green and lift the scent of warm patchouli and spicy chrysanthemum to the heavens. A hushed, candle-lit ceremony hidden amidst towering stone and mausoleum walls.

Featured botanicals–or, how the magic happens: benzoin, costus root, patchouli, musk root, ivy resin, chrysanthemum.

The Ritual: Light the pointed end of a cone with a match or lighter until a small flame ignites. Allow flame to catch, then snuff and place on a heat-resistant surface, allowing for fragrant smoke to fill the room. Do not burn unattended; burns approximately 15 minutes. 20 charcoal cones presented in a black apothecary glass jar.
