Know before you buy
This candle features a deep, earthy scent profile. It blends notes of smoky cedar, warm amber, and dark musk to evoke the rugged landscape of West Texas.
The cotton wick provides a classic, steady burn, while the wood wick offers a subtle crackling sound similar to a miniature fireplace. Both options are lead-free and perform consistently throughout the life of the candle.
The 8 oz half-pint size offers approximately 45+ hours of burn time, while the 14 oz pint size provides 80+ hours. Burn times can vary slightly based on environmental factors like drafts or wick trimming.
Yes, the candles are vegan, cruelty-free, and made with phthalate-free fragrance oils. They are housed in recyclable glass containers, and a portion of the proceeds from every purchase supports the National Park Foundation.
For the cleanest burn, always trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each use. Additionally, allow the wax to melt all the way to the edges of the glass during the first burn to prevent tunneling.
