Vintage Lift Scented Candle
Old lifts had a smell you could never quite name. Every one was slightly different and all of them were basically the same.
They have largely gone. To get it back we went around the factory buildings in Tuen Mun, Kwun Tong, San Po Kong and Cheung Sha Wan, riding lifts and taking notes, and settled on a few we thought were the most pleasant to be inside.
Whether our idea of a lift matches yours is the interesting part.
Scent — Machine metal · engine oil
Burn time — Approx. 30 hours (140g) / 20 hours (100g)
Made in — Hand-poured in Hong Kong
Best used — On the first burn, let the surface melt edge to edge. It prevents tunnelling and gives you the full scent every time after.
