Know before you buy
This is an earthy, complex fragrance rather than a traditional floral or sweet candle. It opens with bright notes of lemon leaf and pepper, transitions into a savory heart of Enoki mushroom and rosemary, and settles into a warm, grounding base of sandalwood, patchouli, and tonka bean.
While burn time depends on your specific environment, a 4.5 oz. candle of this size typically provides approximately 20 to 25 hours of burn time. To maximize longevity, ensure you trim the wicks to 1/4 inch before each use.
The dual-wick design is used to ensure an even melt pool across the surface of the tin. This prevents tunneling and allows the fragrance to throw more effectively in smaller to medium-sized rooms.
Yes, the metal tin is durable and can be repurposed once the wax is fully consumed. Simply clean out any remaining wax residue with warm, soapy water, and it can serve as a small decorative storage container.
No, the pull-tab is a decorative design element intended to mimic the look of a culinary tin. The lid is a standard lift-off style, making it easy to open and close.
