Discovery of Witches Fan / Dark Academia Reader Gift Candle - Fresh Balsam

For when your dating profile should really just say "Seeking immortal scholar with extensive rare book collection and territorial tendencies." This cool, woodsy blend of balsam and eucalyptus recreates that moment from A Discovery of Witches when Matthew Clairmont—a vampire who's guarded the world's knowledge for centuries—suddenly finds himself more interested in watching you turn pages than in the ancient manuscripts themselves.

Crisp eucalyptus and fir branches evoke that first territorial circle—when an immortal who's claimed the Bodleian as his domain discovers someone handling his precious books with unexpected reverence, triggering protective instincts that have nothing to do with the texts. As the cedarwood emerges, feel the shift when scholarly interest becomes something far more dangerous—when a creature who's spent centuries maintaining careful distance suddenly can't stop finding reasons to lean closer, his breath cool against your neck as he points out marginalia you've both already noticed.

Perfect for readers who understand that the most intense intellectual connections happen not in casual conversation, but in those charged moments when someone who's read every book ever written still finds your perspective utterly fascinating—and your pulse even more so.
