HCC x The Met: Seneca Luxury Candle

Inspired by this multi-sensory experience, the "Seneca" candle transports you to a fragrant, bustling kitchen with top notes of spiced black tea. Through an open window, breezes carry in an aromatic accord of wild thyme and crisp cedar leaf, which can still be deeply inhaled walking through Central Park today. Incense, cade, and red clove create a warm aura at the heart, leading beautifully to the resinous, woody freshness of birch and vetiver. Modern, powdery concrete provides the perfect smooth finish, representing the present with an eye on the future, as we observe the exhibition in the continuing cycle of life.

In your desired room, place the candle on a flat surface and do not burn for more than 4 hours. Upon first use, ensure the wax melts evenly on the top layer of the vessel, keeping away from any drafts, open air vents, or ceiling fans. To optimize purity of the fragrance, keep the wax pool clear of wick trimmings and debris at all times. For the full Harlem Candle Company ritual, extinguish each flame with the a candle snuffer, and trim wicks before burning again with a wick trimmer.

Never leave a burning candle unattended or within reach of children and pets. Do not burn candle completely down - always leave at least 1/2 inch of non-molten wax at the bottom.
