Xeyvian is patient, steady, and loves with a depth that leaves no room for doubt. Burdened by truths unspoken, this fragrance is his presence: enduring, unforgettable, and woven with a hint of mystery.
The scent opens with a hint of citrus and deepens as it burns. Cedar and amber warm the space, wrapping you in the certainty of his presence. You don’t just smell him, you feel him settle around you, unwavering and completely yours.
Smells like: citrus, cedar, amber, and knowing exactly what it means to be his mi’ajna.

The scent of slow-burning tension and the kind of scenes that catch your breath. Powdered amaretto seduces the senses, melting into warm balsam and a whisper of sweet, spiced rum. Deep musk and resinous oud linger like a secret rendezvous: mellow, rich, and impossible to put down. Best paired with a hot cup of tea and zero interruptions.
Smells like: The last steamy chapter, soft candlelight on bare skin, and a book you can’t put down (or read in public).

Tig is mischievous, magnetic, and quietly protective. Cloaked in vines and crowned with budding branches, she embodies the wisdom of the woodlands. Always ten steps ahead, she weaves fate like the roots of ancient trees - anchored with care, but never rushed.
Crisp lime and pear evoke the sweetness of wild berries and the smell of freshly snapped branches. Earthy patchouli, sage, balsam, pine, and cedarwood honor the home of the wood sprites.
Smells like: pear, patchouli, sage, balsam, pine, and a whisper of fate gently woven.

Shivaria is stoic and grounded, only revealing calculated versions of herself over time. Trained not to trust, she moves through Terr with quiet vigilance.
This fragrance mirrors her transformation in Child of Shivay: jasmine opens with innocence, then deepens into notes of sandalwood, leather, and musk. Vari’s scent captures the many layers of her identity: Drakai, Fea Dien, lady, mi’ajna…Tha’haynah.
Smells like: jasmine, leather, amber, earthy patchouli, musk, and the quiet strength of a woman rediscovering herself.

Step into the quiet hush of an old library, where polished mahogany shelves, timeworn leather, and the faint sweetness of aged paper fill the air. Warm tonka and resinous oud blend, weaving a scent that adds a dark, velvety richness, like a secret hidden in the back of a well-loved book.
Smells like: cedar, sandalwood, and soft musk of leather chairs, well-loved tomes, and the lingering warmth of a story you can’t put down.

Customer Review
“WTF is this sorcery? Lauren really is a scent sorceress, because there is no other explanation for how mint, leather, amber, cedar, and smoke can come together to create this subtly seductive scent.
At first sniff, I could definitely imagine the smell of Xaden’s leathers wrapped in dragon smoke and shadow magic. But it’s so subtle - not overly smokey or overpowering. It’s just perfectly balanced magic. And when the candle’s lit? It still smells like leather and smoke and magic, but there is a freshness to it - like Xaden right after a shower or dip in the lake. That might sound ridiculous, but I don’t know how else to describe it.
It’s smoky yet airy, rich but clean, and just so well balanced. Honestly, I could curl up with a book, light this candle, and breathe it in all day.”
