A bonfire crackles in the crisp winter air, flames licking at charred wood. Roasted chestnuts and vanilla add a creamy, smoky sweetness, balancing the dry scent of burning embers. The warmth wraps around you like a thick wool sweater, chasing away the cold. It’s the smell of warmth against frost, of stories told by firelight, of a night spent with nowhere to go but deeper into the moment.
