A Portrait of Tonka at Dusk

$70.00

A Portrait of Tonka at Dusk captures the quiet elegance of December evenings, when the air turns crisp and the world seems to slow beneath a soft winter glow. Warm tonka rises like the last ember of the day, wrapped in ambered sweetness, smooth woods, and a gentle trace of evening spice, creating a comforting contrast against the cool night. It feels like stepping indoors from the winter chill, soft light, warm hands, and a calm that settles deeper with every breath. A fragrance of warmth meeting twilight, it paints December in tones of gold, resin, and velvety depth.
