Dark Tales Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum is a unisex fragrance from the Swedish brand Dark Tales, released in 2024.
This extrait de parfum has a very strong sillage and was created for those who appreciate expressive, atmospheric and unusual compositions.
Amber and floral facets are combined with balsamic, earthy-mossy, gourmand and fairy-tale nuances.
The name Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum sets a distinctive mood for the composition: flickering light, warm wax and a dark space filled with smoky, soft accents.
The fragrance feels like a cohesive olfactory image in which coziness meets mysticism, while the subtly sweet base gradually takes on a deeper, more textured character.
The top notes open with accords of bed linen and frankincense.
This combination creates a contrast between a sense of cleanliness and a dry balsamic tone, making the opening of Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum both soft and distinctive.
Amber, violet and wax unfold at the heart of the composition.
The central accord makes the fragrance warmer and more enveloping: amber depth is supported by violet's powdery floral facet and a distinctive wax note.
Moss and vanilla remain in the base, adding earthy density and gourmand softness to the sillage.
Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum is presented as a unisex fragrance, making it suitable for women and men who are drawn to unexpected combinations and concentrated extraits.
Its very strong sillage makes it a noticeable choice for evenings, cool weather and special occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality.
Because of the composition's high intensity, it is best introduced gradually, starting with a small number of sprays and assessing how it develops on the skin.
Specific dosage recommendations for skin and clothing are not provided in the available information, so the ideal amount should be determined according to personal sensitivity, temperature and the desired sillage intensity.
The composition was created by Arina Franzen.
In Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum, her work comes through in the layered combination of frankincense, amber, wax, moss and vanilla, with familiar materials assembled into a darker, more fairy-tale-like image.
For Dark Tales, this release is an expressive example of the Swedish brand's approach to perfumery: the composition is built around mood and imagery, rather than solely around a familiar note pyramid.
Floating Candles Extrait de Parfum may appeal to niche fragrance enthusiasts who enjoy exploring unusual interpretations of amber and florals.
