Vanilla Scented Candle, named after vanilla, known to the Aztecs as the black pod. Citrus at the opening. Vanilla and jasmine at the heart. Sweet woods and benzoin at the base. Warm and sweet.

Description

Vanilla is a species of the orchid family native to Central America, used in sacred beverages combined with cocoa before entering European perfumery via 16th century trade routes. The plant’s seed pods yield a resinous, balsamic extract documented in medicinal and culinary preparations across multiple traditions. This scented candle carries a composition of citrus, vanilla, jasmine, sweet woods and benzoin.

How to use

Place on a heat-resistant surface before lighting. On first use, allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface. Trim the wick to 3-5 mm before each use and keep it centred. Do not burn for more than three hours at a time. Extinguish with a candle snuffer. Never leave unattended, and do not move while lit or while the wax remains liquid.

Andrew O. ★★★★★

The citrus opening is a lovely surprise—it lifts the sweetness instead of letting it get cloying. It burns evenly and the warm benzoin base keeps the room cozy for hours without that waxy, bitter after-smell.

Hannah ★★★★★

Burned this during a rainy afternoon and the warm vanilla with that woody base filled the whole room, not just the corner. The jasmine heart is subtle enough that it doesn't go powdery on me, which is usually my dealbreaker with vanilla candles. Even burn, no tunneling, and I've already ordered a ba

Owen S. ★★★★★

The citrus opening caught me off guard in the best way—it’s fresh before melting into that warm vanilla and jasmine heart. Burned it for two hours and the sweet woodsy base lingered nicely without getting cloying.
