Oak Moss Candle

$72.00
Description

Our Oak Moss candle is deep, atmospheric, and richly layered. Hand-poured from botanical soy wax, it captures the elusive beauty of oak moss with notes of damp earth, woodland moss, decaying leaves, lichen, and soft woods. An earthy opening gives way to a smooth, full finish, while hints of bittersweet green galbanum, balsamic undertones, and the coumarin warmth of freshly cut hay add complexity and quiet intrigue. The result is a fragrance that feels grounded in the secret life of the forest- lush, dark, and beautifully composed. Crafted with 100% soy wax blended with essential oils, aroma compounds, and premium fragrance oils, this candle is designed for slower moments, reflective spaces, and those drawn to fragrances with depth and natural elegance. Once the wax has softened, it can also be used as a massage oil.

Use & Care

To light: turn the candle upside down and place the flame beneath the candle so the flame goes directly upward to the wick. Once lit, return the candle to its normal position to avoid dripping wax.

  • Burn on a heat-safe surface away from drafts.
  • Do not leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Keep away from children, pets, and flammable materials.
  • Allow the wax to soften fully before using as a massage oil, and test temperature before applying to skin.
