Description
The Petrichor Plains candle is rain on dry earth. Iris and violet lifted by the storm, rosemary and cardamom warming the rooted hush of amyris and Australian sandalwood. Light it on the first cool day after heat, on a quiet autumn morning, or in any room that has been holding the day too tightly. Weather, brought indoors.
Our candle vessel now comes with a black branded metal lid. Functionally, the lid protects the wax from dust and light between burns and helps retain cold throw.
Hand poured in Melbourne from 100% natural soy wax. Approximately 60 hours of burn time.

The story behind the scent
Rain, after a long dry day.
This scent represents the arrival of rain after a long, hot, dry day. Both founders grew up in the countryside and vividly recall the moment a thunderstorm finally breaks. The earth exhales, the air fills with something ancient and alive. That feeling of the landscape breathing again, everything transformed in a single downpour.
