DESCRIPTION: This is a new, unused Calyan scented soy wax candle in their "Fir & Clove" scent, a classic fall and winter scent; the candle is modern in style, in a clear glass jar, and the candle has two cotton, metal-free wicks for better scent dispersal or "throw". The soy wax used for these candles is grown here in the U.S., and the company is also located here. The wax weight for this candle (not counting the glass jar, which is on the heavy side) is 8.8 oz and it has a nice long burn time of 37 hours. The label shows the scent as made up of "Balsam, Sweet Pine and Clove Bud".

The scent is long-lasting so even after the candle is extinguished it tends to linger; it is a fairly strong scent so please keep this in mind since it is just the ticket for some but not for others. The scent is a natural one, described by the manufacturer as a "...seasonal blend of freshly trimmed pine, spicy clove-flavored undertones of steaming apple cider, and gentle wisps of smoke as you linger by the log fire. The company also says the "Fir & Clove" scent "...captures the rich, warm aromas and memories of the winter holiday season." I find that it evokes fall as well as winter, particularly because of the spicy tones.

SHIPPING NOTE: The glass jar is very heavy and so is wax (this candle has 8.8 oz weight just with the wax, plus the substantial glass jar), making candles a heavy item to ship. The post office has also instituted increases for the holiday season so please also keep this in mind as the shipping cost must be factored into the total, and with free shipping it also affects the ability to accept Best Offers. Thanks for understanding!
