Sandalure 18 — Sandalwood and Vanilla Candle

No. The vanilla here is Madagascar vanilla — darker and drier than dessert vanilla, closer to leather than to sugar. It deepens the sandalwood rather than sweetening it. If you've avoided vanilla candles for being cloying, this one is built differently.

Hand-cast, heat-stable concrete — 1.2 kg, poured in two tones. No two vessels are identical. When the wax is finished, put the vessel in the freezer for two to three hours: the soy wax contracts, separates from the wall, and lifts out in one piece. What's left is a pen cup, a catch-all, or whatever your shelf is missing.

Every candle ships in a kraft box with no prices inside. If you're gifting it, consider [The Duo Set →] — Lavendure 21 and Sandalure 18 together in a single gift box.
