Founded by Bee Shapiro, beauty columnist for The New York Times, Ellis Brooklyn was born from the need for non-toxic products for people who love fine luxury fragrances. Named after her daughter, Ellis Brooklyn pairs the paraben- and phthalate-free creations of renowned perfumer Jerome Epinette with artisanal, small-batch, natural formulas to create products that are not only responsibly sourced, but are packed full of ingredients that truly care for your skin.This dynamic scent is inspired by the frank, action-oriented prose of Ernest Hemingway and Kurt Vonnegut, masters of transmitting emotion without over-adornment. The Verb fragrance bursts forth with fresh notes of bergamot, mandarin and basil before adding layers and complexity by way of cedarwood and skin musks. It is as once addictive and enlivening. Hand-poured in upstate New York, this candle is meticulously cared for from start to finish. It's made with a soy wax blend using domestically grown soy and a hemp wick, which is a renewable source that produces a lower environmental impact than cotton. It is housed in a beautiful, recycled, lead-free, handmade glass container. Style Name:Ellis Brooklyn Verb Terrific Scented Candle. Style Number: 5081238. Available in stores.
