8 oz/227 g ✩ Coconut Soy Wax ✩ Cross Wood Wick

The road that always leads home.

Dirt Road brings the warmth of a rural summer evening into the room.

Inspired by the backroads of the American West, this western luxury candle opens with the soft sweetness of honeysuckle blossoms, rose, and jasmine, then settles into green tea, herbal notes, and moss. The result is a home fragrance that feels peaceful, familiar, and quietly alive, like fresh air moving through a farmhouse after the windows have been open all day.

Hand poured with clean burning coconut soy wax and finished with a crackling wood wick, Dirt Road creates an atmosphere of comfort and belonging. Light it in the kitchen, living room, or bedroom when you want your home to feel grounded, welcoming, and touched by the simple beauty of the countryside.

Our candles are crafted with all natural coconut soy wax, reusable whiskey glasses, and premium Wood Cross wicks designed to create a soft crackling ambiance inspired by the warmth of an open fire. Proper candle care helps ensure the cleanest burn, best fragrance performance, and longest life of your candle.

Before Each Burn

Gently remove any loose charred wood from the previous burn and keep the wick trimmed short, approximately 1/8 inch. Wood wicks perform best when clean and properly maintained.

Because Wood Cross wicks are natural wood rather than cotton, they may require multiple lighting attempts, especially after the first burn. For best results, we recommend using a torch or utility lighter rather than matches. Apply the flame near the base of the wick closest to the wax surface until the flame draws evenly across the wood.

Achieving a Full Melt Pool

For best performance, allow the wax to melt fully to the edges of the whiskey glass during every burn, especially the first burn. Achieving a full melt pool edge to edge helps prevent tunneling and promotes a cleaner, more even burn throughout the life of the candle.

Most burn sessions should last approximately 2 to 4 hours depending on room temperature and environment.

Burn Environment

To help maintain a cleaner burn, avoid placing candles near open windows, fans, air vents, or drafts. Airflow can cause uneven burning, excessive flickering, and additional carbon buildup on the inside of the glass.

A small amount of carbon residue may naturally occur over time with wood wick candles due to the larger, more ambient flame created by Wood Cross wicks. This is a normal part of the burning process and does not affect candle performance.

When to Stop Burning

Discontinue use once approximately 1/2 inch of wax remains at the bottom of the whiskey glass.

Cleaning + Repurposing the Whiskey Glass

Once less than 1/2 inch of wax remains, allow the candle to cool completely before cleaning.

To remove remaining wax, either place the whiskey glass in the freezer to help release hardened wax easily, or carefully pour softened wax onto a paper towel and place it in the garbage. Never pour wax down the sink or drain.

Once emptied, gently remove the wick tabs and clean the whiskey glass with warm water and mild soap before repurposing for cocktails, coffee, or small floral arrangements.

TRIM BEFORE EACH BURN

Gently remove loose charred wood and keep the wick trimmed to 1/8" for a clean, even flame.

ALLOW A FULL MELT POOL

Burn 2 to 4 hours. Allow melted wax to reach the edges of the glass during every burn to help prevent tunneling.

DISCONTINUE AT 1/4"

Stop burning when approximately 1/4 inch of wax remains at the bottom of the glass.

YOUR NEW WHISKEY GLASS

Once finished, clean the glass with warm water and reuse it for cocktails, coffee, or keepsakes.

The road that always leads you home.

Dirt Road captures the quiet beauty of rural life at golden hour, when gravel roads turn warm beneath the sun and wild honeysuckle, rose, jasmine, green tea, and moss drift through the air like memory. Rooted in the backroads of the American West, it is a fragrance of belonging, simplicity, and the places that know us before we even arrive.

The Story Behind The Fragrance

Not every beautiful place appears on a map.

Some places live in memory.

Dirt Road was inspired by the gravel roads that wind through ranch country, farming communities, and the forgotten corners of the American West. Roads lined with wildflowers growing untamed beside fence posts. Roads that lead to old barns, family gardens, horses in distant pastures, and homes that have stood through more seasons than anyone can count.

It is the feeling of turning off the highway when the world finally gets quiet. Dust rises behind the truck. Honeysuckle drifts through the open window. A breeze moves across hay fields and carries the scent of green things, warm earth, and flowers nobody had to plant. Somewhere ahead, a porch light glows.

Dirt Road is less about travel and more about arrival.

It honors the places that shape us. The roads we know by heart. The beauty of rural life when nothing is polished, but everything feels true. It is family roots, summer evenings, wildflowers in the ditch, and the deep comfort of belonging somewhere so completely that the land feels woven into your story.

FRAGRANCE DETAILS

Crafted to fill your home with warmth, atmosphere, and the spirit of the West.

How strong is the fragrance throw?

Our candles are designed to create a noticeable yet refined fragrance experience that fills a space without becoming overwhelming. Fragrance strength may vary slightly depending on room size, airflow, and scent profile.

What kind of wax do you use?

We use an all natural coconut soy wax blend selected for a cleaner burn, beautiful fragrance performance, and smooth finish. Paraffin free.

What is a cross wood wick?

Our candles feature premium Cross Wood wicks designed to create a soft crackling ambiance inspired by the warmth of an open fire while promoting an even burn experience. Made with American hardwoods. Our signature cross wood wicks bring a cozy crackle and beautiful flame to each and every burn.

Why is my wood wick difficult to relight?

Before each burn, gently remove any loose charred wood from the previous burn and keep the wick trimmed short, approximately 1/8 inch. Wood wicks perform best when clean and properly maintained.

Because Wood Cross wicks are natural wood rather than cotton, they may require a few lighting attempts, especially after the first burn. For best results, use a torch or utility lighter and apply the flame near the base of the wick closest to the wax surface until the flame draws evenly across the wood. Traditional matches may not generate enough consistent heat for an easy relight.

How long should I burn my candle?

For best performance, allow the wax to melt fully to the edges of the vessel during every burn, especially the first burn. Achieving a full melt pool edge to edge helps prevent tunneling and promotes a cleaner, more even burn throughout the life of the candle. Most burn sessions should last approximately 2 to 4 hours depending on room temperature and environment.

Why does my candle look uneven after burning?

Natural waxes may develop slight texture changes, frosting, or uneven surfaces as they cool. These are normal characteristics of handcrafted candles and do not affect performance.

Is the whiskey glass reusable?

Yes. Once finished, the whiskey glass can be cleaned and repurposed for cocktails, coffee, or small floral arrangements. Before cleaning, make sure all remaining wax has been removed by either placing the candle in the freezer to help release hardened wax easily, or carefully pouring softened wax onto a paper towel and placing it in the garbage. Never pour wax down the sink or drain.

Are your fragrances phthalate free?

Yes. Our fragrances are phthalate free and carefully selected for both quality and performance.

Where are your candles made?

Every candle is hand poured, labeled, and packaged in house in Pendleton, Oregon.

100% made in the American West.

How do I clean out the whiskey glass after use?

Once less than 1/2 inch of wax remains, discontinue burning the candle and allow it to cool completely. To remove remaining wax, either place the whiskey glass in the freezer to help release hardened wax easily, or carefully pour softened wax onto a paper towel and place it in the garbage. Never pour wax down the sink or drain. Once emptied, gently remove the wick tabs and clean the whiskey glass with warm water and mild soap before repurposing.

Why is there black residue on the glass?

A small amount of carbon buildup or dark residue on the inside of the whiskey glass may naturally occur over time with wood wick candles, especially if the wick is left too long or the candle is exposed to drafts, fans, or airflow. Because Wood Cross wicks create a larger, more ambient flame than traditional cotton wicks, occasional residue is a normal part of the burning process and does not affect the performance of the candle.

To help maintain a cleaner burn, gently remove loose charred wood before each lighting, keep the wick trimmed short, and avoid burning near open windows, vents, or fans. Any residue can typically be wiped away easily once the candle has cooled.

Can I send this as a gift?

Absolutely. Our candles are packaged to feel gift worthy from the moment they arrive.
