The phrase refers to extremely cold weather & derived from the phrase "enough to freeze the nose (or tail, the ……) off a brass monkey."  The wonderful fragrance has a top note of evergreen and fern with a note of burning fireplace perfect for the winter season and finished with a GB gold wax seal.

Disclaimer: Please do pay attention when your candle is burning and must not burn for more than two hours at a time. On the bottom of the candle & on box it states with this luxury candle after it has burnt down 50% not to leave the wax seal on the glass.
