Woodland Wake Candle

Fragrance notes
Top: Lemongrass, citrus zest
Middle: Matcha tea, green leaves
Base: Soft woods, clean air

Woodland Wake is a clean, green forest candle inspired by Appalachian mornings. Bright lemongrass blends with soft matcha tea to create a fresh, lightly citrusy scent that feels like cool air drifting through tall trees. Hand-poured in small batches using coconut apricot wax and premium fragrance oils, this candle delivers a smooth burn and a gentle but noticeable scent throw.

This is an ideal candle for those who love herbal, botanical, and nature-inspired fragrances. Woodland Wake works beautifully in living rooms, kitchens, and workspaces where you want clarity, calm, and a breath of fresh air without sweetness or heaviness.

Why people love Woodland Wake
Woodland Wake feels like a reset. It clears the air without overpowering a room and creates the kind of calm that comes from being outdoors. Customers gravitate to it when they want something fresh that is not floral, not perfumey, and not sweet. It is especially loved in kitchens, offices, studios, and anywhere people want focus with peace.

Crafted in Appalachia

Hand-poured with coconut apricot wax and thoughtfully made in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains.

Candle Care

Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each burn. Allow the melt pool to reach near the vessel’s edges, especially during the first burn. Keep away from drafts and discontinue use when approximately ½ inch of wax remains.
