Introducing the Mt. Vernon Candle: A Scented Tribute to Baltimore’s Cultural Heart
Baltimore’s Mount Vernon neighborhood goes beyond geography; it’s a living portrait of the city’s artistry, intellect, and elegance. With its marble steps, gothic spires, and speakeasy echoes, Mount Vernon, Baltimore, has long been the heart of culture. At Meet Haus, we bottled that feeling into something bold, beautiful, and lasting: the Mt. Vernon Candle.
Forget everything you expect from a soy candle. It’s a bold fragrance candle designed to turn heads and shift moods. Inspired by architectural grandeur and the poetic soul of the neighborhood, the Mt. Vernon Candle is our most daring artisan candle launch yet, a luxury soy candle that honors the past while scenting your present.
The Inspiration: A Neighborhood Worth Remembering
Walk through Mount Vernon, Baltimore, and you’ll feel it. The stories in the stonework. The quiet intensity of old libraries and theaters. The aroma of aged leather in tucked-away speakeasies in timeless hotels.
We wanted to recreate that atmosphere, not just as a scent, but as a feeling. The Mt. Vernon Candle is layered and complex, just like the neighborhood. It speaks in textures: polished wood floors, velvet curtains, gin-soaked air, and the quiet crackle of leather-bound books.

The Fragrance: Bold, Sophisticated, Unapologetic
From the first spark, this candle opens with a bold brightness.
- Top Notes: Spicy peppercorn, zesty orange peel, and a hint of violet make a sharp, citrusy entrance, like stepping into a marble lobby on a cool spring day.
- Middle Notes: As it burns, the candle deepens into grounding sage and resinous pine, reminiscent of Baltimore’s urban green spaces and contemplative corners.
- Base Notes: Finally, it lingers with supple leather and gin-like juniper, echoing speakeasy lounges and classic charm.

This is a peppercorn and juniper candle with presence. A soy wax candle with leather scent that doesn’t fade into the background. Instead, it becomes the atmosphere.
Why the Mt. Vernon Candle Stands Out
This candle was crafted for those who believe fragrance should do something. Here’s what makes it special:
- ✅ Strong scent throw – Fills even large spaces with ease
- ✅ Made with 100% soy wax – Clean-burning, eco-friendly, and sustainable
- ✅ Reusable glass vessel – Minimalist and chic, designed to be kept
- ✅ Small-batch, artisan-made – Every candle is hand-poured with precision and care
The Mt. Vernon Candle doesn’t just smell good, it commands attention, making it a standout historical scent candle for modern homes.
