How to burn it+
  • The first burn decides the rest. Let the wax melt all the way to the edge before you put it out, or it tunnels from then on.
  • Trim the wick to a quarter of an inch before every light.
  • No more than four hours at a time, and never in a draft.
  • Never leave it burning in an empty room.

The notes

    Leather · Amber · Dry Wood

The scent

Leather, amber and dry wood: a saddle left out in the sun, an adobe wall still warm after dark, the high desert at the hour the light turns gold. The Land of Enchantment, in a tin.

The vessel

A steel tin, illustrated with the state's nickname, its notes and a few of the animals that live there.

The best one in the series, and Daddy has smelled the series. Leather, amber and dry wood: a saddle left in the sun. Give it to whoever is from there. Keep one if you only wish you were.
