Know before you buy
This candle features a complex, spicy-woody profile. It leads with notes of worn leather, aromatic tobacco, clove, and ambery incense, balanced by a heart of jasmine and a warm sandalwood base.
The 11oz candle is designed to provide approximately 80 hours of burn time when used properly.
The Langston candle is crafted using natural soy wax, which is known for a cleaner, more consistent burn compared to paraffin alternatives.
While the fragrance is sophisticated and layered, its woody and spicy notes are designed to be evocative rather than overwhelming. It works well in medium-to-large living spaces, though you can control the intensity by adjusting the burn duration.
The glass jar stands 4.25 inches tall with a diameter of 3.25 inches, making it a substantial piece for a coffee table or bookshelf.
