Description
Our candles are hand poured in small batches using 100% soy wax. Soy wax is biodegradable and cleans easily with soap and water. Soy wax also has a lower melting point than paraffin wax, which means these candles will burn slower than paraffin candles. Soy also burns cleaner than paraffin candles creating little to no soot or black smoke compared to other candles.
Our wicks are made from natural flat cotton threads interwoven with paper threads. They do not contain zinc or any other metals. We also don’t use any dyes to color the candles. This contributes to a clean burn and doesn’t put unwanted chemicals in the air.
If you care about the air quality in your home, using soy wax candles rather than petroleum based candles will definitely be a step in the right direction.
Candle Scents Available:
Ocean Breeze
The flora and fauna of New England’s ocean fronts are what we sought to capture in our Ocean Breeze candle. The base of Oakmoss provides the earthy-mossy aroma you smell just as you walk into brush-covered dunes. Next come the flowery scents of Honeydew and Violet, topped off with Citrus. You’ll be on the Cape or Old York Beach with the light of the wick.
Vanilla
Our Vanilla candle is as close to homemade vanilla ice cream as one can get. The layering is simple but oh-so-smell-o-licious: Vanilla, with a middle of Buttercream, then topped with Vanilla. It’s like having a sundae without any of the calories.
Hazelnut Coffee
Hazelnut goes with many wonderful flavor and scent profiles and we’ve infused several of them here: Vanilla, Cream, Maple, Coconut, and Coffee. Think Frangelico meets Vanilla Coconut Cream meets real Vermont Maple Syrup. It’s a blend to go nutty for.
Clean Cotton
No matter what season it is, our Clean Cotton scent will bring you to a country backyard with fresh-washed clothes drying in the summer breeze. An impeccable blend of Cedar, Violet, Jasmine, Cotton Blossom, Lemon, and Apple offers an uplifting aroma that transports you as soon as the candle is lit. What are you waiting for?
Pineapple Sage
Our Pineapple Sage candle is ideal for cleansing spaces with its Sage and Eucalyptus oils. The base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Anise bring tones of warmth while the Pineapple, Rosemary, and Bergamot lighten the air with floral and citrus aromas.
Lavender
Lavender has been used for centuries to calm and soothe. Our Lavender candle is a wonderful way to fill your space with the soothing scent of Lavender, plus hints of Cedar, Lemon, and Bergamot, which also help calm the nerves. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and relax.
Lilac
Our grandmothers grew lilacs in their backyards. We wanted to capture this wonderful aroma that always signaled the beginning of summer. The base is Sandalwood to express the essence of the lilac tree wood. Then come Rose, Carnation, and Green Leaves, because our grandmas always had robust gardens. Lilac tops it all off, so when you light your candle, lilac wafts through your rooms, just as the scent wafted through our grandmas’ yards.
Honeysuckle
Spring comes late to Vermont, but there’s no need to wait with our Honeysuckle-scented candle. The Honey base is layered with Honeysuckle, Pear, Green Leaves, Neroli, Berry, and Lemon, delivering wave after wave of spring aromas to your home. It’s so close to the real thing you may expect to see a bumble bee or two.
Macintosh Apple
Fall in Vermont is iconic, so when we thought of fall scents, no other would do than the MacIntosh Apple. The base is a mix of something special: the rich tones of Vanilla and Bourbon. Apple is featured in the middle, and Green Leaves and Pear top this candle off, like that homemade Apple Pie à la mode you have at your favorite Vermont country inn.
Vermont Maple Syrup
You don’t need to wait for pancakes and waffles to enjoy the sweet scent of real Vermont Maple Syrup! Enjoy the rich amber tones of our Vermont maples and creamery butter anytime you want just by lighting the wick.
Citron and Mandarin
You can’t always get away to a tropical paradise, but you can close your eyes and drift away to one with our Citron and Mandarin scent. The rich vanilla provides the perfect base for the orange and peach to rise and filter through the air. Just as you’re floating away on a peach dream, in come the light tones of grapefruit, lemon, and mandarin to make your tropical paradise a true destination.
Amber Noir
The word “noir” always lends an air of mystery, and that’s no different with our Amber Noir scent. With a base of Sandalwood, Amber, and Dark Musk, you’ll swear you’re somewhere in Casablanca, especially when the hints of Cedar and Jasmine float by. Topped off with the lightness of Mandarin, and you’ll be starring in your own black and white romantic getaway.
Apples and Maple Bourbon
This mouthwatering, boozy scent starts with top notes of apple, cinnamon, and a hint of orange. Bourbon and butter are the heart of this fragrance, while rich, sweet maple and vanilla finish off this irresistible baked apple dessert.
Oakmoss and Amber
This captivating scent begins with hints of orange, grapefruit, and an infusion of sage that enhance the natural earthy quality. Lavender adds a soft floral and herbal touch to the heart of this fragrance, while oakmoss, amber, and tonka round out the base for a beautiful, deep character.
White Tea
White tea has long been used for many purposes. When infused with other oils like Chrysanthemum, Thyme, Jasmine, Ginger, Bergamot, and Mandarin, it takes on an airy, ethereal fragrance, with hints of citrus, floral, and light earthy scents.

I purchased the Cotton Clean and the Vanilla, 8oz candle. They arrived quickly, surprisingly quick! I have burned both candles to check them out and they both smell amazing. I burned the vanilla practically all day and the level only went down 3/4 of an inch, if that. Very impressed!
Tiffany –
I‘ve tried several of the scents. All smell amazing. Candles burn “clean” and don’t leave black soot on the walls or ceiling even after many hours of burning. Scent is also “clean” and doesn’t smell heavy or overpowering.
The simplicity of the jars makes them ready for gift giving—just put a bow on them and they are ready to gift.
