La Trouverie, a farmstead deep in the French countryside of Le Perche, was the scene of my carefree antics, hide-and-seek games, constructing wood cabins, and chasing butterflies. This candle tickles my nose with its sweet scent of fresh straw mixed with lavender and teasing with rosemary and thyme, bringing back childhood memories.
