Scent profile
Burn it for: Fall and winter nights, dinner parties, and a bath with the lights low
Otherworldly and magnetic, Portal 708 is a fragrance that lives in the threshold between worlds. Sycamore smoke rises at the opening, threaded with pine and birch, evoking the shadowed entrance to the unknown. At the heart, smooth leather and soft vanilla entwine with clove and nutmeg, a paradox of comfort and danger. The base lingers with patchouli, cedar, musk, amber, and a dark splash of rum — grounding the ethereal in something timeless and intoxicating. A scent of mystery and passage, Portal 708 is an invitation to linger in the liminal, where reality bends and the air hums with possibility.
4 oz: a sweet way to try a new scent, and great for bathrooms and desks. 8 oz: the everyday favorite for bedrooms and offices. 16 oz: made for living rooms and open spaces, and the best value per ounce.
On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge (about 1 hour per inch of width). This prevents tunneling and gives you the strongest scent throw. Trim the wick before every burn (about 1/4 inch for cotton wicks, 1/8 inch for wood wicks), and burn no more than 4 hours at a time.
