D.S. & DURGA Candle - Concrete after lightning

Electric crackle, downpour, panic grass, sizzling asphalt steam. Respite on muggy summer days.

Geosmin is the scent molecule released from bacteria in dirt after it rains. What’s lovely, is that the Geosmin blends with different aromatics in different environments. Whereas in the forest it smells dank yet fresh, in the city you get the scent of hot asphalt and concrete quickly cooled by rain. Concrete After Lightning is simple–you have the air, rain, steam, and some of the weeds that grow in the cracks of New York City.
