Scent Story
Description
Jaisalmer Fort, Jaisalmer: Chattris dimly lit in the far distance, like a silk brocade laced over the Haveli, scintillating with gold ornate and intricate design, as if the Rajputana opulence were coming to life. I sipped my creamy tea and listned to the silk merchant tells a tale of fragrances that crossed paths on the ancient Silk Road. Exotic traders walking down this path. A pulsating melody filled the atmosphere, as a local plucked Morchang that echoed complex rhythmic patterns of sound. The Banjari women danced the ghoomar in sync with the music, spanning their lenghas, which were embroidered with rich zari patterns, vibrant colours, adorned with beads and sequins that elegantly twinkled on an ocean of sand. An old merchant continued his tale of the Silk Road. He induced a timeless feeling as though the past were present with me.
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.
