A brilliantly dark graphic novel, A City On Fire is the story of two match-makers. Rupert literally fabricates matches in a factory on the waterfront while Frances writes a dating column for the city’s newspaper. Both are recluses who haunt the night’s shadows observing clandestine activities from afar but never partaking. That changes one fortuitous evening when they are both witness to the same high-profile murder and are forced to come together as an unlikely vigilante pair in order to save their own names.

Cade oil, spikenard, and cardamom — smoke and fire with remarkable clarity and balance.

Editor's Notes

Connoisseurs of smoke fragrances will be pleasantly surprised by the remarkable clarity and finesse of A City on Fire, which is high impact and full potency – never at the expense of its lucidity. Balanced is the word. This arrangement of smoke and fire is well under control, as this dark cloud assumes elegant shape and proportion, refined with the cool and resinous touch of cardamom. A City on Fire lacks roughness, the source of this smoke from a combustion of clean materials - including cade, spikenard herb, labdanum, and clearwood - a patchouli material that emphasises earthy dryness. One is beguiled to follow the trails of smoke, as this fragrance reveals itself to be as woody and earthy as it is smoky.
