Brand: Three Ravens Company
Scent Description:
The Grue Church fire happened in Grue, Norway, on 26 May 1822, and took the lives of between 113 and 117 churchgoers. It is the biggest fire disaster in the history of Norway. On Pentecost, the church was filled to capacity. In the middle of the sermon that was preached by vicar Iver Hesselberg, great-great Grandfather of novelist Roald Dahl, a fire broke out on the outer wall of the southern transept, and soon the fire broke in. Within 10–15 minutes the church was completely engulfed and soon burnt to the ground.*
This is a moody, smokey scent inspired by this great disaster. Olibanum and Pine Tar blended with Burnt Wood and Smoke. We truly tried to capture the fragrance of an old holy structure, built with layers and layers of sticky pine tar, that has been destroyed by fire. I liken it to the scent of a forest fire.
