Ruined by Fictional Men - Cashmere Musk Scented Candle - Reader Gift

The essential rehabilitation candle for readers who've spent too long comparing real partners to impossibly perfect literary creations. When you've reached that point where actual dating feels disappointing because no one has ever rescued you from a ball, fought a duel for your honor, or mysteriously inherited a Scottish castle—this is your intervention in wax form.

Immerse yourself in this Cashmere Musk fragrance, a sensory reset designed to ground you back in reality. The sophisticated top notes of bergamot and saffron create a mature alternative to those fictional fantasies, while heart notes of violet and lily of the valley remind you of life's genuine pleasures. As the dark musk and vetiver base notes emerge, they provide the complex depth that actual relationships offer—not the simplified perfection of fictional romance.

Each therapeutic session with this candle offers approximately 20 hours to recalibrate your romantic standards. The elegant amber vessel serves as a gentle reminder that sometimes the most valuable relationship is the one you have with yourself—no brooding hero required.

For best results: Light while deleting dating app profiles that demand "must be 6'3" with tortured past and ancestral estate."
