Mt. Vernon Candle

Peppercorn · Orange · Violet · Leather · Juniper
A soy candle that fills shared living spaces — without overwhelming them.

A Space That Feels Lived In

Mt. Vernon is made for rooms with character.

The kind with books stacked on tables, art that’s been collected over time, and evenings that stretch a little longer than planned. Spaces where old details and modern pieces sit comfortably together.

This isn’t a candle that rushes in and disappears. It settles into a room and stays there steady, present, composed. You notice it, but it never competes with the moment.

The Fragrance

It opens with peppercorn and orange, dry spice softened by a warm citrus edge. Not bright, not sugary. Just balanced.

Then comes violet. Powdery and subtle, adding a quiet elegance without tipping sweet.

As it burns, sage and pine move in: cool, herbal, grounding. The base unfolds more slowly: leather and juniper, dry and slightly sharp, giving the scent depth without heaviness.

Nothing dominates. The layers stay clear and cohesive from the first light to the last hour.

How It Performs

Mt. Vernon works beautifully in living rooms and gathering spaces up to about 250 square feet.

Within 20–30 minutes, the scent begins to bloom and gradually builds. It doesn’t spike or fade — it stays consistent throughout the burn.

With proper care, you’ll get a clean, even melt pool and around 45 hours of burn time.

This isn’t a quick burst of fragrance. It’s a steady presence that lasts.

How to Get the Best Burn

• Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each use
• Let the wax melt fully across the surface (about 2–3 hours)
• Place it where people gather — living rooms, dining areas, shared spaces

A little patience gives you a cleaner burn and a fuller scent experience.

Who It’s For

Mt. Vernon tends to draw in people who prefer complexity over sweetness.

Those who like their homes to feel thoughtful and layered.

Those who choose pieces for meaning, not trend.

It’s warmth with structure. Depth without excess.
