Fragrance, like art, holds the power to awaken memory and emotion. To breathe in an aroma is to be transported deeper into nature’s embrace, where the beauty and essence of plants gently unfold. To mark the opening of KFBG’s exhibition Impressions, Expressions – feeling & depicting nature, we present a limited-edition collaboration with local fragrance brand BeCandle: the Aroma Oil & Biochar Diffuser Set, a harmony of scent and sustainability. Two bespoke aroma oils, inspired by the essence of plants, are paired with a biochar diffuser crafted from recycled KFBG wood. Together, they release delicate notes of leafy shade, flowing water, morning mist, and fresh grass – inviting us to wander into the quiet depths of the forest and lose ourselves in the sanctuary of life it shelters.
Scent Profiles
Aroma Oil: Whispering, 10ml
Inspired by the intuitive imagery experienced by the BeCandle team during their visit to the Walter Kerr Garden: sunlight filtering through treetops, gentle breezes weaving across stone bridges, accompanied by flowing water and embraced by abundant native plants... Under the dancing shadows of trees, this vision sparked the perfumer's creation: the elegant clarity of lavender intertwines with the tranquil, earthy essence of vetiver and cedarwood, while tonka bean, myrrh, and musk add warm, nuanced layers. This is a fragrance that carries the memory of the land, guiding profound spiritual contemplation.
Tasting Notes: Lavender, Vetiver, Myrrh, Tonka Bean, Cedarwood, Guaiacwood, Musk
Aroma Oil: Harmony
A bright blend of lemongrass, citronella, verbena and geranium, Harmony carries the freshness of hope. It embodies KFBG’s ecological vision of balance and renewal, created in honour of this commemorative moment – welcoming the organisation’s 70th anniversary. An uplifting fragrance that looks forward, celebrating sustainability and the promise of harmony with nature.
Tasting Notes: Lemongrass, Citronella, Verbena, Geranium
The Biochar Diffuser
Crafted from recycled KFBG wood, the biochar diffuser is both a vessel for fragrance and a story of transformation.
> Sustainable Value: Traditional wood decomposition releases carbon dioxide, but biochar locks carbon away for up to 1,000 years – acting as a long-lasting carbon sink.
> Circular Life of Trees: From nature → art → instruments/furniture → biochar → soil enrichment & water purification.
> Symbolism: Each diffuser embodies resilience, renewal and the possibility of new beginnings within natural cycles.
