SYNOPSIS: Rescued from obscurity by students who tracked down the reclusive author at a remote cabin in the Austrian Alps, this collection of alpine fairy tales marks the return of enigmatic writer, Chunhua Luli. The main characters in these stories are wild animals but the tender lessons they impart cut straight to the heart of the human condition. In the titular story, a young fox becomes obsessed with a butterfly, only to learn the hazards of infatuation. Other themes explored include the advantages of unflagging ambition, the importance and impact of beautiful objects, the pursuit of serenity, and the power of positive thinking. Forty years after her remarkable debut, Luli once again reminds us we are all animals, connected by an expansive and ever-changing ecosystem much larger than ourselves.

Zoe A. ★★★★★

I lit this in the evening and the floral notes really did bring that ethereal elegance to the room, and the next morning it still worked as a subtle mood-lifter during my coffee. Nice throw without being overpowering, and the scent feels different depending on the time of day.

Michael J. ★★★★★

The scent is genuinely versatile—it’s lifted my mood on a grey workday and then felt somehow softer and more elegant in the evening. Burned it for about two hours and the floral notes filled my small living room without being overpowering.

Sofia Q. ★★★★★

Lit this after dinner and the whole room shifted into this soft, dreamy floral haze that honestly felt like a mood-lift. It's subtle enough for a workday but somehow turns ethereal once the lights go down. The burn is even and slow, so I'm already planning my next order.
