PRODUCT DETAILS
"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: It is the time for home".- Edith Sitwell
A pure vegan-friendly soy wax candle, scented with carefully selected essential oils to honour the deepest days of winter... a time for stillness, reflection, and the gentle rekindling of inner warmth.
Midwinter is a grounding and aromatic blend that begins with the vibrant brightness of sweet orange, giving way to a heart of cinnamon bark, clove, and ginger; rich, spiced, and deeply comforting. Notes of nutmeg and star anise add complexity and depth, creating a warm, resinous scent that glows like candlelight against the dark.
Each candle is poured into a reusable amber glass jar, crowned with a wreath of crushed rosemary and pink peppercorn, and finished with a crackling wood wick that echoes the sound of the hearth.
This essential oil candle captures the quiet power of the solstice — a ritual of light, warmth, and renewal for the long nights of winter.
