Fragrance notes: coffee, sugar cane, magic
Louisiana Voodoo was born of a fusion of West African and Haitian influences that blended with 18th century French culture in Louisiana. It incorporates the worship of ancestors and spirits called loas who can grant favors and good fortune and also act as intermediaries with Bondye, the creator. Pop culture has long been fascinated with the mysterious and magical vibes surrounding Voodoo worship. From the beating drums and rhythmic chanting of elaborate rituals to shops full of potions, voodoo dolls, gris-gris bags, and countless other amulets and talismans, Voodoo has captured the imagination of many and is firmly rooted in the magic and intrigue of New Orleans.
This fragrance is dedicated to the colorful and diverse set of beliefs that is found in Voodoo worship and also to one of the most adored priestesses of all time, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans herself, Marie Laveau. Devotees of Laveau visit her grave and leave tokens in exchange for small requests. Offerings are common in Voodoo practice, especially when calling upon favors from loa spirits. Known as the loa of the dead and in charge of leading souls to the underworld, Baron Samedi is perhaps the most famous and recognizable of loas for his widespread representation in art as a man dressed in a top hat, black tailcoat, and white skull face paint that stands out in stark contrast to his dark skin. This fragrance has an invigorating base of freshly brewed black coffee, which is one of the offerings commonly given to Baron Samedi when asking for healing, as this loa is also a giver of life. It is blended with the aroma of fresh sugar cane which will sweeten the offering and improve the chances of your request being granted. Add a little creole magic to your life with this coffee infused fragrance that will leave you swaying to the seductive rhythm a Voodoo ritual drum.

This scent is cozy and welcoming, with warmth and a bit of sweetness. It's not overwhelming, and the coffee smell doesn't overpower the other notes, so this works well all day long, not just in the morning!
I purchased these wax melts at a shop in Lakewood, Ohio, called "Cleveland Curiosities". I was skeptical to pay the price for wax melts but they I couldn't resist with such fun names and fragrance combinations I had never seen together before. I am absolutely in love. They smell absolutely wonderful (even better once they are warmed!) and the fragrance lasts for many, MANY hours. Not like commercial wax melts that lose scent after just a couple hours. The Voodoo scent is just divine. Reminds me of an old eclectic coffee shop, with random dog-eared books on shelves and mismatched coffee mugs. Or just how I want my place to smell while sipping on coffee, playing with my foraged herbs and writing spells in my grimoire.
The Baron loves his coffee (its only his love for rum that surpasses lol) and who wouldn't love some fresh cane sugar in their hot coffee!! The Voodoo aroma fills the room soon after being lit (or starting to melt) and the scent throw is wonderful!!!
I am in love with this scent. I'm not a huge coffee drinker but I have always loved the aroma it gives off and that's exactly what these wax melts do.
Firstly, the wax melts go above and beyond as far as scent throw expectation. The scent lasts for days and I have been able to melt the same block a couple of times with great results. Voodoo smells like early mornings after a great night's sleep. It really does smell like coffee but not in an overpowering way.
