Just beyond the west coast of the Isle of Mull lies the tiny island of Iona, filled with sandy white beaches and a rich historical landscape. In 563 AD, St Columba built his first monastery here which lasted until the end of 12th century, despite the reoccurring Viking raids!
Mood: Quills dip into rue and buck-thorn ink, scratching interlacing animals and saints into finely made parchment. Honeyed mead and incense cloud the space, sinking into the wicker walls and daub. Beyond the turf vallum, monks toil. Fresh hay and earth linger as storm approaches, bringing ships like fiery dragons. Welcome to the Early Medieval.
Fragrance: Honey, lavender, nutmeg, mint, patchouli, vanilla, and amber.

They say X marks the spot, afterall. In a commonplace field just south of Kilmartin village lies the Nether Largie Standing Stones. They are beautiful and bold centrepieces to this rich prehistoric landscape, that held great significance for both the living and the dead. Fractured, weathered, and home to colonies of lichen and moss, the stones still retain their cup marks. Marks that were carved by people thousands of years ago. Step onto the mossy ground of Kilmartin Glen with our dark amber and ginger lily scented candle!
Mood: Through the stones you walk, footsteps rooted by ancestors long forgotten. A prehistoric landscape surrounds you, dark amber and ancient incense mingling with the fresh, crisp scent of earth beneath your boots.
Smell: Dark amber, ginger, wildflowers, and ancient incense.
