      They have lots of other scents too — and candles.

    I have to admit this sounds awesome. I live for the day when someone can recreate the scent of tobacco drying in the open-vent barns wafting on the autumn breeze.

    It’s a beautiful, memorable smell even though I’ve always been very anti-smoking!

      The smell of dry tobacco is so different from the smell of a lit cigarette, and so much less harmful to the health 🙂

    Wow!

    Did you know that ancient Egyptians used to keep their perfume in this way? And then they smear some on their head, and let the heat of their bodies and sun work on the wax, and scent them head to toe? The notes, except the tobacco, are what I would imagine a very rich ancient Egyptian to smell like.

      Those perfume cones always seemed cute, but impractical to me 🙂

        The women in the picture are wearing headbands, so that would catch some of the melty mess 🙂
