Vela Invertida de Mercurio Festiva Chestnut Embers

The mercury pearl finish catches the light beautifully on my mantel, and the roasted chestnut note is warm without being cloying. It’s been burning evenly for a week now, and the bitter orange adds just enough brightness to keep it festive.

The mercury pearl finish catches the light so beautifully on my mantel, it’s almost a shame to burn it. Lit it for an hour and the bitter orange really cuts through the roasted chestnut—warm and festive without being cloying.

The scent is spot-on—roasted chestnut with a hint of orange that makes the whole room feel cozy. The inverted design is a nice twist, and the mercury finish gives it a subtle shimmer that looks festive without being flashy. Burned it for a couple of hours and the throw was steady, not overwhelming.
