Barely awake, the scent of last night still lingers in the air. The clothes carelessly tossed over a chair carry the memory of what happened. But for now, some things are better left unsaid. Cade and birch open with the dry heat of charred wood. Resinous labdanum weaves its way through the flames, while clove, dark amber, and elemi unfold into a warm, almost sacred intensity. As the smoke slowly clears, Java vetiver and cedarwood remain: dry, earthy, and steeped in a dark, smoky depth.

Boogie Bougie pours the candles by hand in small batches in her studio in the north of Antwerp, selecting the best ingredients to make each candle with care and attention. The candles are made from 100% eco-friendly soy wax and locally sourced ingredients and are packaged in recyclable aluminum containers that can be given a second life after burning. The candles burn for around 60 hours. The candles take you on a journey through other worlds.
