Winter Prunings
Chapter III: The Harvest (Autumn)
The Fragrance Story
Winter Prunings is a sensory portrait of the garden’s final industrious task before the deep frost. It captures the bracing, atmospheric scent of a controlled burn at dusk—the sharp aroma of freshly cut wood, charred oak, and the lingering sweetness of drying leaves. This is a "mineral" smoke fragrance that moves beyond simple fireside scents, offering a sophisticated study of the cold outdoor air met with the glowing heat of a seasonal fire.
The fragrance is defined by a smoky heart of charred oak and vetiver, grounded by a rich base of frankincense and a touch of spiced leather. To achieve our signature realism, every batch is finished with our signature Botanical Blend—a proprietary infusion of raw wood tars and ancient plant resins added at our family workshop bench. This final addition provides a "crisp-air" depth that mimics the realism of an outdoor garden fire on a November evening, creating a warmth that feels architectural, protective, and profoundly steady.
The Heritage Craft
Housed in our signature 250ml Silver Preservation Tin, Winter Prunings is a piece of functional workshop hardware. We chose this traditional ‘Lever Lid’ vessel for its airtight seal; it acts as a vault for our Botanical Blends, ensuring the finer, complex smoke notes remain as potent as the day they were poured.
Every tin is a labour of patience. We hand-pour our bespoke Coconut and Soy wax in small, intentional batches at our family workshop. Each is finished with a textured cream label, raw jute twine, and our signature metallic bronze C&C seal.
The Ritual & Profile
• The Sensation: Smoky, Mineral, and Bracing.
• The Experience: The scent of a distant garden fire on a crisp November twilight.
• The Mood: Grounded, Silent, and Protective.
• The Fragrance Notes: Woodsmoke, Charred Oak, Frankincense, and Leather.
