I’ve been experimenting with blending more custom scents lately and this is my latest, favorite achievement. Blood Orange & Basil is a sultry summery mix of sweet soft citrus and dirty spicy basil – the type of scent that stops you in your tracks and keeps you going back for more. While it was originally inspired by the bright herbs and citrus fruits of summer, it has a moody, peppery air to it that easily works year round. For me, this gives more bedroom and living room vibes than kitchen or bathroom, but honestly, it’s beautiful everywhere.

Candle Care: For best results, keep the wick trimmed and burn in 4-hour intervals or at least until the melted wax reaches the edge of the glass before extinguishing (2-3 hours – the first burn will take the longest). Light your candle without trimming the wick for the first burn and then trim to 1/8–1/4 inch between uses or while burning if necessary to maintain a small, steady flame. If the flame exceeds 1 inch tall, blow out, trim, and relight.  Burning a candle for too little time will cause “tunneling” and burning for too long (without trimming) is dangerous. Never burn a candle unattended or overnight to avoid overheating or cracking the jar.
