classic: 8.5oz, burn time of 30-35 hours

deluxe: 16oz, burn time of 60-70 hours

taking care of your candle helps ensure quality and longevity. it’s best to follow these steps:

— on your first burn, allow the wax to melt all the way to the edge of the vessel.

— with every consecutive burn, trim  your wick to 1/4” before lighting. (never leave your wick trimmings in the vessel!)

— when you’ve reached the last 1/4” of wax, it’s time to clean out the jar and reuse in whichever way your heart desires.

safety first:

— never leave a candle burning unattended, or in reach of pets and/or children.

— do not burn your candle for longer than 4 hours.

— burn candle on a heat resistant surface.

desert bloom:

top notes:

— agave: sweet, watery and slightly earthy. agave is an ancient plant native to the americas.

— bergamot: citrusy, green and floral. the fruit is a cross between the pear lemon and orange or grapefruit. growers still respect ancestral methods and harvesting is done by hand.

— clove: spicy and woody. clove is prized for its culinary and medicinal properties.

middle notes:

— labdanum: balsamic and ambery. labdanum is a sticky brown resin derived from the cistus plant.

— lavender: fresh and herbaceous. bees and butterflies love lavender just like we do.

— rose: sweet and floral. the roses most commonly used in fragrance are the turkish rose, the damask rose, and the centifolia rose from grasse.

base notes:

— leather: smoky and velvety. we can attribute much of the scent of leather to the perfumery materials used during the tanning process (cedar, birch, resins, patchouli and vetiver).

— musk: animalic and skin-like. musk adds depth to fragrances. historically, animal-derived musk was used in fragrance. croatian-swiss chemist professor leopold ruzicka was the first to synthesize musk molecules, making it possible to make musk fragrances without animals.

— tobacco leaf: warm, aromatic and earthy. tobacco is derived from the leaves of a plant from the nightshade family, native to north and south america.
