The scent story
What Volcanic Sands smells like
Chamomile, pear, and sage open the Volcanic Sands soy candle, and rose, lavender, palo santo, and patchouli give it a mineral, coastal depth. We light it in the living room on summer nights with the ceiling fan going.

Candle care
-
Trim the wick
Trim to 1/4 inch before every burn. A short wick burns more steadily and keeps soot off the glass.
-
Let the first burn finish
The first time you light it, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the jar. That melt pool sets the pattern for every burn after it.
-
Burn it safely
Keep it out of drafts, burn no more than four hours at a time, and stop once about half an inch of wax remains.
