Summer, Three Ways
Summer has a way of smelling different depending on where youâre standing. In an orchard, itâs the sticky-sweet aroma of fruit practically melting on the branches. Near citrus groves, itâs that sharp, zesty punch that greets your nose before you even spot the trees. And in a garden? Itâs something softerâhoneyed blooms, green leaves, and the warmth of sunlit glass.
This set gives you all three. These arenât the kind of candles you stash away for âspecial occasions.â Nope. These are the ones you light immediatelyâwhile cooking in the kitchen, soaking in the tub, or pretending to work at your desk. Theyâre not here to create some Pinterest-perfect moment; theyâre here to make your everyday spaces smell like theyâve got their life together.
Each jar burns for 30 hours. Thatâs a lot of summer afternoons, even when itâs the dead of February.
Setting the Scene (Not Just Lighting a Candle)
- Pick your first scent based on what you're doing. Grapefruit for mornings when you need to wake up, apricot for afternoons when you're working but want something sweet nearby, Place in the Sun for evenings when the house needs to smell like more than takeout.
- Trim the wick to Âź inch before lighting. Let the wax melt all the way to the edges on the first burnâthis prevents tunneling and makes the candle last longer. Burn for 3-4 hours at a time, never more than 4.
- When one runs out, move to the next. Or light two at once in different rooms. There's no wrong order.
