What does the Druid Hill Candle smell like?

This citrus sandalwood candle opens with a bright, joyful citrus burst layered with blackcurrant for complexity. Coconut and jasmine bring a soft, relaxing heart, while sandalwood and musk anchor the scent with warmth, soul, and depth. It’s a bold, urban nature candle that feels fresh, grounded, and deeply human, just like the community that inspired it.

Is this an Vegan candle?

Yes—every Druid Hill Candle is hand-poured using 100% natural soy wax, lead-free cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance oils. It’s a true eco-friendly candle in a recyclable glass jar, designed for a clean burn and a second life as a decor piece.

Why is this candle inspired by Druid Hill Park?

Druid Hill Park is a symbol of Baltimore’s past, present, and future. We created this candle to honor its cultural heritage—from its botanical beauty to its role in civil rights history. Each note tells a piece of that story, making this a candle for cultural heritage and anyone who values scent with soul.

Refreshing Citrus and Sandalwood Candle

Created from a deep love for Baltimore, a city layered with history, beauty, and resilience. Druid Hill Park, one of the country's oldest municipal parks (est. 1878), has long been a cornerstone of community life. Surrounded by Reservoir Hill, Woodbrook, Woodberry, and Roosevelt Park, it is more than just green space; it's a gathering ground of joyful memories and cultural milestones.

This neighborhood-inspired candle celebrates a place shaped by heritage and rooted in hope. Each note was chosen to reflect the park's sensory layers, from sunlight glinting on the reservoir to echoes of jazz and block parties.

The Fragrance Journey

Top Notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Blackcurrant (Cassis)
Bright citrus mirrors laughter on playgrounds and weekend walks, while blackcurrant adds depth—playful yet defiant, like the park's history of resistance and renewal.

Middle Notes: Coconut, Jasmine
Soft and lush, this heart evokes the Rawlings Conservatory and blooms that are unapologetically alive.

Base Notes: Sandalwood, Musk
Smooth and grounding, these notes create warmth and quiet strength—anchoring the candle like the community it honors.
