Insight
Taking Delhi as our inspiration and eternal moodboard, we created copy that chat GPT wishes it could come up with. Like this:
1 Candle Name: Delhi at Dawn
The hours worth living for
Olfactive Description: Patchouli, Musk and Orange
Imaginary hours, the color of dreams. No filter. Dewy, bright, and fragrant with the smell of freshly cut grass, the Delhi Dawn delights only a select few: joggers, restless sleepers, and the intoxicated who stretch out fun till it wears air-thin.
If you’re one that revels in the smell of the morning - earthy, sweet, and woody – but not a morning person, this calls your name.
2 Candle Name: The Delhi Don
Old spice aftershave, amber wood, leather briefcase, good looks.
Olfactive Description: Aldehydes, Mandarin Orange, Black pepper, Neroli, Tonka Beans
Closed circles, the waft of a Cuban cigar; well-serviced cloak rooms and third generation barber shops, pool tables, loaded cues. The inner sanctums of old clubhouses where tips are leaked and tee off times confirmed.
The smells that only open up after the dark, when the sun sets and the temperature drops.
We also did the brand’s website copy.
