What It Smells Like
Peppercorn · Orange · Violet · Leather · Juniper
The opening is direct: peppercorn and orange. Warm, not bright. Not sugary. A dry citrus edge that stays controlled.
Violet arrives next—powdery and subtle in the best way. It adds quiet refinement without tipping sweet.
The base is where Mt. Vernon settles and stays: leather and juniper, cool and slightly sharp. Sage and pine move in, making the whole thing herbal and grounded. Nothing dominates. The layers stay clear and cohesive from first light to the last hour.
This is a strong, deep fragrance. Not heavy. Built to be part of the room.
Who This Is For
- For you if: You light candles every evening and need something you won't tire of
- For you if: You prefer complexity and substance over sweetness
- For you if: Your home has a point of view—collected pieces, taste-driven design, character
- Not for you if: You want florals and fruit-forward scents.
How It Performs
Room coverage. Mt. Vernon reads in living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms up to about 250 square feet. The scent has presence without aggression.
Bloom time. Within 20–30 minutes, the fragrance blooms. It doesn't spike or fade. It stays consistent.
Longevity. With proper care, you'll get approximately 50 hours of burn time and steady scent performance across the entire candle.
For the best burn: Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each use. Let the wax melt fully across the surface (about 2–3 hours on first burn). Place it where people gather; it's designed to complement a room, not dominate it.

The Story
Mt. Vernon is the Baltimore neighborhood shaped by preservation and intentional living. This candle carries that same DNA: built with standards, meant to ground a room, designed to stay. Not a quick scent. A presence. Something you build a space around.
Coconut-soy wax blend, premium fragrance oils, cotton wick. Free of phthalates, parabens, and synthetic dyes.
First burn: allow the wax to pool edge to edge (2–3 hours) before extinguishing. This prevents tunneling and sets the scent throw.
Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each burn. Keep away from drafts. Never burn more than 4 hours at a time. Discontinue use when ½ inch of wax remains.
