The bright one in Caftari's signature trio — a bergamot-led citrus blend for the part of the day that needs restarting rather than winding down.
Highlights
✓
Bergamot essential oil sits at the center of the blend, so the citrus reads crisp and slightly bitter rather than sugary — closer to peel than to candy.
✓
Poured into a glazed ceramic vessel instead of the usual glass jar, which means the container is worth keeping as a pot or catch-all once the wax is spent.
✓
Light enough to burn in a kitchen or at a desk without competing with coffee, food or anything else already in the air.
✓
One of three scents in the Caftari signature range, each built around a different essential oil — pick by mood rather than by room.
Citrus is the easiest candle note to get wrong; done cheaply it turns into furniture polish within ten minutes of burning. Elixir avoids that by leaning on bergamot, which carries a green, faintly floral edge underneath the brightness and keeps the scent from flattening out as the candle warms up. It suits a morning room, a home office, or anywhere you want the air to feel awake — and it is the odd one out in Caftari's range, which otherwise runs warm and quiet.
One container candle in a glazed ceramic vessel, sold individually. The Caftari signature range also includes Dolce Far Niente (rose) and Scent of Nirvana (oud), and all three come boxed together in the Caftari Signature Candle Gift Set. Trim the wick to roughly a quarter inch before each burn, keep the pool clear of trimmings, and never leave a lit candle unattended. Caftari does not publish a wax type, a burn time, a net wax weight or the vessel's dimensions for this candle — contact us if you need any of that confirmed before ordering.
