Know before you buy
The scent is designed to mimic the smell of rain hitting dry earth. It features a crisp, airy base of citrus ozone balanced by the green, earthy undertones of violet leaves and wild fern.
Yes, the candle is crafted from eco-friendly soy wax. Soy wax is a biodegradable, renewable resource that generally burns cleaner and slower than traditional paraffin wax.
You can expect a total burn time of 70 to 80 hours. To maximize this lifespan, ensure you trim the wick to about a quarter-inch before each use and allow the wax to pool to the edges during the first burn.
The scent is balanced to be refreshing rather than heavy. While it provides a noticeable atmosphere, the natural notes of fern and violet leaf keep the fragrance subtle enough for bedrooms or home offices.
Because it is made from soy wax, it produces significantly less soot than paraffin alternatives. Keeping the wick trimmed short will help maintain a clean, steady flame throughout the life of the candle.
