Know before you buy
This scent is grounded in herbal and earthy notes, featuring a blend of wild sage, rosemary, woodland ash, and musk. It is designed to evoke the atmosphere of an arid landscape rather than a traditional floral or sweet fragrance.
The candle is crafted from a proprietary blend of soy and paraffin wax. This combination is chosen to balance the clean-burning properties of soy with the superior scent throw often associated with paraffin.
You can expect up to 60 hours of burn time. To maximize this, ensure you trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each use and allow the wax pool to reach the edges of the glass during the first burn.
Yes, each candle is presented in a luxurious hinged box with a pearlescent croc texture and includes a set of Antica Farmacista’s signature matches, making it ready for gifting.
The candle is housed in an elegant soft white glass vessel. Once the wax is fully consumed, the container can be cleaned and repurposed as a decorative holder for small items like makeup brushes or pens.
