Intertwined within the eclectic Gucci narrative, the lion candle incorporates elements of the powerful creature with the face appearing on the front of the porcelain cup, and pedestals shaped to resemble paws. A blend of wax infused with aromatic extracts and essential oils is presented in rose printed white Richard Ginori porcelain with a matching lid featuring a curled detail. The scent, Mehen, combines aquatic ingredients such as Persian blue salt, seaweed and water moss with licorice, capturing the essence of a water snake. The name Mehen is a reference to the Egyptian deity—a coiled up snake—recalling the various depictions of the symbolic animal throughout the House narrative.
