Fragrance Family: Dark Fruity | Earthy | Gothic
Deep, intoxicating, and unapologetically shadowed, Ruin is a fragrance of aftermath and allure. It opens with the lush sweetness of dark cherries soaked in wine, rich and decadent, before sinking into black raspberry and currant with a quiet intensity. As the flame burns, the scent deepens into damp earth and moss-covered stone, grounded by cedarwood and softened by vanilla and merlot.
Ruin is where sweetness meets soil. Where desire collapses into memory. Where beauty and decay linger together, inseparable.
Top: Dark Cherries, Earth
A bold opening of ripe, wine-dark fruit layered with the first impression of freshly turned soil.
Middle: Black Raspberry, Currant, Moss
A lush and untamed heart that blends dark berries with the green, damp hush of moss and stone.
Base: Vanilla, Merlot, Cedarwood
A lingering finish of warm woods and wine-soft sweetness that settles slowly and sensually.
Light Ruin when you are ready to sit with complexity. When sweetness feels dangerous, when beauty carries weight, when you want the room to feel heavy with feeling and intention. This candle is made for late nights, unspoken truths, and moments when you allow yourself to linger in the shadow rather than rush toward the light.
Each Hemlock & Hearth candle is hand-poured in our home studio. Because they are handmade, there may be slight variations such as a gently off-center wick, textured tops, or the occasional crease in a label. These small imperfections are part of the process and do not affect the quality or burn.
