About this piece

Ancestral Ember is our deepest, most ceremonial pour — a matte black vessel with a brushed gold lid and a geometric pattern drawn from Kente and mudcloth traditions. The fragrance opens with black coffee and smoked oud, settles into frankincense and myrrh, and finishes on sweet tobacco leaf and dark honey. Light it during prayer, journaling, family dinner, or any moment that deserves reverence. This is the candle you keep on the mantle year-round and gift to the people who taught you your name.

    Now part of my daily ritual

    This is my third piece from Melanin Luxe Collective and the consistency is real. Everything matches and feels like a set.

    Gifted it twice already

    I expected something thin and flimsy for this price and got the opposite. It has held up through everyday use and still looks brand new.

    This one made me tear up

    This is my third piece from Melanin Luxe Collective and the consistency is real. Everything matches and feels like a set.
