Terrific Scented Candle
This Product Is: a soy wax blend candle
Why We Love It: Ellis Brooklyn Terrific Scented Candle comes in 4 scents. Hand-poured in upstate New York, each soy wax blend candle is meticulously cared for from start to finish. 6.5 oz housed in a beautiful recycled, lead-free, handmade glass container. Even long-lasting burn: 50-60 hours burn time.
Fable: An elegant orange blossom scent inspired by the first meeting of Androcles and the Lion. The gorgeous initial bloom plays with dewy violet, petitgrain and honeysuckle before being rounded by the warmth of crisp amber and cedarwood.
Top Notes: Neroli, Black Currant
Mid Notes: Honeysuckle, Petitgrain, Dewy Violet
Dry Notes: Crisp Amber, Cedarwood
Pseudonym: Inspired by the D.H. Lawrence poem "Figs", the fragrance starts with the fresh green notes of Capri fig and then blossoms into a seductive blend of jasmine, pepper and sandalwood-- the kind of mysterious scent perfect for assuming a Pseudonym.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Pepper
Mid Notes: Capri Fig, Jasmine, Violet
Dry Notes: Tonka Beans, Sandalwood
Verb: A dynamic scent inspired by the frank, action-oriented prose of American authors from Ernest Hemingway to Kurt Vonnegut, masters of transmitting emotion without over-adornment. The Verb fragrance bursts forth with fresh notes of bergamot, mandarin and basil before layering on complexity by way of cedarwood and skin musks—at once addictive and enlivening.
Top Notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Dragon Fruit
Mid Notes: Wild Orchid, Basil, Peony
Dry Notes: Cedarwood, Skin Musks
SuperEgo: Bold, daring and seductive, Superego is inspired by great travel writings, the kind that transports, transforms and makes you dream of something more. Saffron, black leather and oud make for an intoxicating base, while passion fruit, apple blossom and Centifolia Rose add brightness and levity.
Top Notes: Saffron, Passion Fruit
Mid Notes: Apple Blossom, Centifolia Rose
Dry Notes: Agarwood, Black Leather

What's Behind "Fragrance"?
US law does not require that companies be transparent about the ingredients in fragrance/parfum. Credo believes in your right-to-know. We require all brands to categorize the fragrance in each product (see chart above), and encourage brands to fully disclose all scent ingredients.

All products are cruelty-free and formulated without ingredients on The Dirty List™️. At Credo, "clean" goes even deeper. Learn more.
