Phyllis

The story of Phyllis and Demophon was recorded in Ancient Greek mythology and showcases the power of passionate love. The forlorn Phyllis was destined to await her husband’s return on the beach whereupon they had met; but all in vain, as the warrior had not been able to reach her in time. In this candle we wanted to convey the feeling of sweet love which both Phyllis and Demophon sought to reclaim. We chose to invoke the sweet and tart scent of their last embrace. If you too are now far away from your loved one, whether you have met them yet or not, consider lighting this candle and allowing the cathartic little flame to do its job of mystically recalling the last loving embrace of Phyllis and Demophon. This candle will infuse your space with the warm sweet scent of Phyllis’ almond tree, and the heady, tart scent of the warrior Demophon, finally reunited just like they were at the end of their story.
