St. Louis Missouri Candle #15
This hand-poured soy candle opens with a bright hit of grapefruit and citrus before settling into something a little deeper — a cool evergreen note that keeps the whole thing feeling alive rather than sweet. It's the kind of scent that works in a living room on a Tuesday morning just as well as it does when you're hosting on a Saturday night. Fresh without being sharp, energizing without being aggressive. The kind of thing you notice when you walk in the door and then can't imagine your house without.
- 60-hour burn time — genuine long-haul home fragrance, not a candle you replace in two weeks
- Hand-poured soy wax — a natural, sustainable base that burns cleaner and more evenly than paraffin
- Scent profile: grapefruit, citrus, and evergreen — bright top notes with a grounding finish
- St. Louis Missouri collection — destination-inspired, made with regional pride
- Uplifting, year-round scent — fresh enough for spring, warm enough for winter months
- Gift-ready presentation — works as a standalone gift at a price point that feels generous without overshooting
Care & Cleaning
To get the most from your soy candle, trim the wick to about a quarter inch before every burn — it keeps the flame steady and the scent throw consistent. On the first use, let the candle burn long enough for the entire top layer to melt to the edges; this sets the memory of the wax and prevents tunneling. Keep it away from drafts, and burn it on a heat-safe surface. Once the wax is spent, the vessel cleans up easily with warm soapy water — pour out any remaining soft wax, rinse, and you've got a sturdy little container worth keeping. A hand-poured soy candle this well-scented deserves that kind of attention.
