Candle - Oak and Sage

A woody, aromatic candle that brings to mind the freshness of a forest in the early morning. Italian bergamot, clary sage and dried lavender on top; fermented black tea, white cedar and balsam fir at the heart; Virginia cedarwood, a cashmere accord and white oakmoss at the base.

Baltic Club hand-pours it in Montréal with vegan soy wax and rates its scent strength as bold (4 out of 5).

Format: 8 oz jar, about 50 hours of burn time.

Materials: 100% natural vegan soy wax (phthalate-free and paraffin-free), lead-free and zinc-free cotton wick, amber glass jar with gold lid.

How to use: the first time, let the candle burn until the wax has melted across the whole surface, about 2 hours. This prevents tunnelling.

Care: trim the wick to about 6 mm (1/4 in.) before each use; a wick that is too long can cause a high flame or black smoke. Stop using the candle when about 1 cm of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. Once the candle is finished, wash the jar in warm soapy water to give it a second life as a pencil holder or small vase.

Origin: hand-poured in Montréal.

Precautions: never leave a burning candle unattended or burn it for more than 4 hours at a time. Place it on a flat, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable objects, children and pets.
