Scent Story
Description
An ode to cheminée traps a new year celebration in warm log cabin cottage deep in Chamonix valley of France. The smell of burning logwood emanates a sense of time freezing still. A tranquil milieu, warmed by love….A perfect beatitude. Old photo albums lay scattered around us as we all sat cuddled around the fireplace. Our laughter grew louder and louder, infectiously spreading as we walked down memory lane. The flames lapped around in a synchronized dance with our sounds and seemed to enjoy our reminiscence of the past colourful years. Silly family anecdotes, lovers tiffs, childhood shenanigans, sibling attacks constantly ripping us into laughter till our bellies hurt. For that one instance, I look up and steal a mental photograph of us all sitting together, cuddled up, full of love and laughter…And then I feel his presence. His fatherly presence blankets us all, like an invisible sheath of protection. And I close my eyes with a deep sense of gratitude for what we have and what he has left us with. I celebrate togetherness
Fragrance has a very profound power in my life. They conjure up nostalgic moments; moments of love and joy. Simple fragrances evoke a sublime association with my memories. Each Ahloki candle is formulated to rekindle aromas harboring in places that mark my life experiences. They encompass my life and the quintessence journey to my soul. It is this profound experience I want to share with you, through my fragrances.
My fragrances are in search of soulful meanings, trapped in our surroundings, they encircle the little moments that pass us by, but we take no heed, and when you get a whiff of it again, you are transposed back to the exact moment, that made you feel a deep sense of love, happiness, joy, pleasure, peace, tranquillity and calmness. Ahloki was founded on the backbone of this link between fragrance and memory. Unlocking my memories through scent and inspiring you to create your special moments, trapping them in a candle and reliving them over and over again.

Benefits & Care
Our sense of smell (or olfaction) is our most primitive sense, and one of the most powerful senses. It is the strongest sense that is intricately linked to memory. The sense of smell is the most important trigger of memory. Our olfactory bulb is part of the brain’s limbic system, which is in the same parts of our brain that affect emotion, memory recall and creativity. Fragrance has the ability to influence our brain, power to change our moods, enhance feelings of wellbeing by triggering the body to relax, escape to a happy place, recall happy moments and elevate the spirits. Through olfactory & aromatherapy, we want to encourage mindfulness & meditative living, being intensely aware of your “now” and attend to your feelings in the present moment. Our candles give you the gift of time.
The first time you light your Ahloki candle, please burn until the wax melts to an even pool that surrounds the edges of the glass jar. This will help keep the top of the wax smooth, preventing an uneven burn. Keep the wick trimmed to a quarter of an inch before each burn, as this will help prevent any smoking and will keep any residue from dropping into the wax. Do not burn your candle for more than four hours at a time.
Never leave a lit candle unattended. Keep your candle out of the reach of children and animals. Keep candle away from draught. Always keep your candle away from anything that could be a fire hazard. Always trim the wick or clean the wax once the candle has gone cold. Keep lit candles at least 3 inches apart and place them on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Do not move a burning candle. Always store the candle in an upright position away from direct sunlight or heat.
Being a family-run business, we benefit from uncompromised quality and immaculate attention to detail.

When I received it, I was initially disappointed as it smelled very smokey indeed. However, when I actually lit it, it turned our to be just perfect. It is very subtle, not overpowering at all. It is like walking past a house with a lit chimney, when you can smell a hint of smoke.
