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.

santal:

top notes:

— cardamom: picy and aromatic. cardamom is a herbaceous perennial plant in the ginger family.

— fennel: herbaceous and soft. used for culinary purposes, also used in making absinthe.

— ginger: spicy and peppery. ginger thrives in the tropics and is grown in india, china and west africa.

middle notes:

— amber: spicy and aromatic. amber is made from fossilized tree resin (think: the mosquito in jurassic park).

— cedar: woody and crisp. ancient sumerians used cedarwood oil as a base for paints, and ancient egyptians used it in embalming practices.

— clover: sweet and green. bees are highly attracted to clover, giving us clover honey.

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

base notes:

— 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.

— sandalwood: a rich wood with soft and creamy accents. sandalwood is one of the most ancient fragrance ingredients still used today; the earliest records of sandalwood date back to 500 BCE.
