I remember this scent from when I was a kid. It’s the first breezy day in autumn after a warm playful summer. It smells like a forest, right after a light rain — mossy earth, wet and fresh leaves and grass, tree sap, wet twigs, wood bark, and last notes of blossoms before the cold.
Petrichor (/ˈpɛtrɪˌkɔːr/) is the earthy pleasant scent that accompanies the first rain after a long period of warm, dry weather. The word is constructed from Ancient Greek πέτρα (pétra) 'rock', or πέτρος (pétros) 'stone', and ἰχώρ(ikhṓr), the ethereal fluid that is the blood of the gods in Greek mythology.
Hints of Vetiver, Sandalwood, and Patchouli soothen and calm anxiety and stress, reduce dullness and tiredness.
Petrichor candle will definitely make you think “It’s so familiar, I’ve definitely felt this before”.
