Patchouli and dark amber bring a deep, resinous mood to this concrete scented candle, made for slow evenings and low light. The soy wax carries a warm, earthy fragrance, while the wooden wick adds a soft fireside crackle as it burns.
The scent in the room
Patchouli gives the fragrance its earthy, grounded character, with a depth that suits evening light.
Dark amber adds warmth and shadow, giving the scent a richer, more enveloping feel.
The wooden wick brings a gentle crackle, closer to a small hearth than a silent candle flame.
The concrete vessel has a raw, pared-back look that sits easily with modern, minimal or natural interiors.
It works well as a table centrepiece, a bedside ritual candle, or a steady presence on a mantel or shelf.
Soy wax and a wooden wick
The candle is poured with soy wax and fragrance, set around a wooden wick. Soy wax is a plant-based candle wax, appreciated for the way it carries scent with a smooth, even melt when cared for properly.
Wooden wicks behave a little differently from cotton wicks. They need to be kept neatly trimmed, but they reward that care with a small, atmospheric crackle as the flame settles.
A concrete vessel with a second life
The vessel is made from concrete, giving it a tactile, stone-like presence. Concrete naturally carries small variations, marks and quirks, so each pot has its own character rather than a factory-perfect surface.
Felt pads on the base help protect the surface beneath it. Once the candle has been fully used and the vessel cleaned, the pot can be repurposed in your home, including as a small plant pot.
How to burn it well
Place the candle on a heat-proof holder or plate before lighting. Trim the wooden wick to about 5 mm each time, and let the wax melt evenly across the surface where possible before blowing it out.
Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from curtains, books, dried flowers and anything flammable. Allow the concrete vessel to cool before mov…
