Sandalwood · Vanilla · Cinnamon · Hand-cast concrete

The opening note is dry. Sandalwood — not sweet, not incense-register, just the wood itself: dense, warm, slightly resinous.

Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar comes through in the heart. It deepens rather than sweetens. This is vanilla that belongs in a room with leather and aged brass.

The base is cinnamon — measured, not spiced. The kind of warmth that holds, not announces.

For the evening hour when the day has finished with you. When the week's weight has a specific gravity and you've stopped resisting it. This is the candle for that hour.

Design & Details

CANDLE CARE — COLLAPSIBLE SECTION

First burn: allow the wax pool to reach the edges before extinguishing — 2 to 3 hours. This prevents tunneling.
Trim the wick to ¼ inch (6mm) before each burn
Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time
Extinguish with a snuffer, not by blowing
Keep away from drafts, direct sunlight, and heat sources
To clean the vessel after the final burn: add boiling water, let the remaining wax float to the surface, remove when cooled

Key Notes

Sandalwood

Base Note

Smooth, creamy, and woody — sandalwood is neither sharp nor sweet. It reads as warm rather than dark, and present rather than heavy. It is the anchor of Sandalure 18: the note that stays the longest, and the one that deepens with each subsequent burn. First burn establishes it. By the second and third, the room holds it differently.

Scent character: Smooth · Woody · Long-lasting

Aged Patchouli

Base Note

Not the raw version. Aged patchouli is smoother, drier, and more nuanced — the sharp edges of fresh patchouli are gone, replaced by an earthy depth that supports rather than dominates. In Sandalure 18, it grounds the sandalwood base and keeps the vanilla from reading as purely sweet. The note you sense rather than smell.

Scent character: Earthy · Dry · Grounding

Vanilla

Base Note — Bourbon Vanilla, Madagascar

Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar is not the synthetic vanilla of most candles. It is warm and dry — closer to the bean than the extract, and far from anything sugary. In Sandalure 18, it closes the arc: the final layer after the spice has opened and the geranium has settled. What remains is warmth without weight.

Scent character: Warm · Dry · Unhurried
