QUERCUS CANDLE

Lit this before dinner and the whole kitchen smelled like a misty oak grove with a burst of lemon peel—the citrus cuts through the woodiness just right. The burn is steady, and at 32 hours it's lasted me through two weeks of evenings without any tunneling. It's become my little ritual for winding do

The citrus hits bright and clean right away, but the oak underneath keeps it grounded—I’ve never had a candle smell so much like an actual forest floor. It’s burned evenly for three evenings so far, and 32 hours seems about right for the size.

Lit this about an hour before bed and the citrus really cuts through the oak, not heavy at all. It's hand-poured so the burn has been even so far, and knowing it should last close to 32 hours makes the price feel fair. Definitely my new go-to for winding down.
