Hidden in the shadows of the forest, you walk to the beat of your heart. The scent of aromatic, herbal greens and oak moss awake your senses as the sun comes through the trees and lights the way. When creating a new candle, ester and eriks scented candle designer Emmanuel Martini always uses colours and images inspired by Scandinavia to find the right scent for the candle. He draws inspiration from the Nordic countryside and from observing the Danes going about their daily lives, his creativity and imagination being sparked by the feelings aroused by the sea, glowing embers, plants or a pine forest. Often he selects a single detail from his experience, which he magnifies and transforms into a fragrance and colour symbol.
