Fresh Start

Fresh Start opens with lemon — clean, immediate, no sweetness — and moves quickly into crisp linen and green florals, that specific combination that reads as open windows and cleared surfaces. The base is a light, warm musk, just enough to keep the fragrance from disappearing entirely. This is a utility candle in the best sense: it does exactly one thing, does it consistently, and doesn't try to be more complicated than it needs to be. Light this at the start of a morning or right after cleaning.

Hand-poured in Sarasota, Florida in small batches. Wax blend: soy-coconut. Wick: cotton-core. Net weight: 8 oz. Estimated burn time: 45–55 hours. Vessel: reusable glass tumbler — clean with warm soapy water once the candle is spent. Free of paraffin, phthalates, and parabens. Every batch is made in small quantities, which means minor variation between pours is part of the craft.

Trim the wick to ¼ inch before every burn. On the first burn, allow the wax to reach a full melt pool — typically 2 to 3 hours — to prevent tunneling. Keep away from drafts, pets, and children. Never burn unattended. Discontinue use when ¼ inch of wax remains.
