Nectar+Honey Luxe Soy Candle

Nectar+Honey smells like raw honey straight from the jar — sweet, warm, a little floral, with that golden depth real honey actually has. The scent is built around raw honey at the center, layered with orange blossom (like a citrus tree blooming nearby), jasmine, and rose to add flowers without tipping into perfume. Ylang ylang, vanilla, and tonka anchor the base and keep the scent warm rather than thin. Customers consistently describe it as "soft," "warm," "cozy," and "comforting" — light enough to burn while you're cooking, rich enough to fill a room.

Same scent, different size and vessel. The Jelly Jar is 6oz, $18, and burns about 30 hours in a simple glass jar. Luxe is 10oz, $35, burns about 75 hours, and comes in a smoke-tinted glass tumbler with our custom Bee Inspired emblem — polished enough to stay visible on an entryway table, kitchen counter, or living room shelf.

Anywhere, but it's especially good in entryways and living rooms. The warm honey-and-floral scent greets visitors with something inviting before anyone says a word, and the 10oz Luxe vessel is sized to fill larger open spaces where a 6oz jelly jar can get lost. It's also a strong kitchen candle — the honey notes layer naturally with cooking — and works well in bedrooms and bathrooms. Versatile enough to move around the house seasonally if you want.

Yes — one of our most reliable gifts, especially for hostesses, housewarmings, Mother's Day, and "I owe you something nice" moments. The honey scent is universally well-liked (it's our best seller for a reason), the smoke-tinted Luxe vessel reads as a real present rather than a stocking stuffer, and the 75-hour burn time signals genuine investment without being over the top. Pair it with a jar of our raw honey for a complete, on-theme gift in two minutes.

About 75 hours when burned properly. The biggest factor is the first burn. Let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the tumbler, about 90 minutes, before blowing it out, or the candle will tunnel and waste wax. Retire the candle when about ½ inch of wax remains in the tumbler.

Three things make the biggest difference. First, trim the cotton wick to ¼ inch before every light. Long wicks cause smoke and uneven burning. Second, on your first burn, let the wax pool reach the edges of the tumbler, about 90 minutes, so the candle doesn’t tunnel. Third, keep individual burns to 3 hours maximum and let the candle cool completely before moving it. Burn on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, pets, and anything flammable.

100% American-grown soy wax, a phthalate-free fragrance oil, and a 100% cotton wick. Soy burns cleaner than paraffin. There are no dyes, no synthetic colors, and no phthalates. Every batch is hand-poured in our Owings Mills, Maryland facility and inspected before it ships.

Reuse it. Once the wax is gone, wash the smoke-tinted glass tumbler with hot soapy water and put it back to work. Customers use them as catchalls for jewelry, makeup brushes, and pens, or as small bud vases. The 10oz vessel is bigger and more decorative than our jelly jars, so it tends to find a permanent second life. We’re not big on single-use anything, and these are too good to toss.

Reuse it. Once the wax is gone, wash the 6oz jelly jar with hot soapy water and put it back to work. It’s the right size for sugar, tea bags, paper clips, hair ties, bobby pins, spare buttons, loose change, jewelry, or a tea light. Some customers use them as bud vases or tiny salt cellars on the kitchen counter. We’re not big on single-use anything, and the jars are too solid to throw out.
