Pocket Canyon Soy Wax Candle | Santal Amber

There’s a stretch between Guerneville and Forestville — Highway 116 narrows, the redwoods close in, the fog drops low — and the world goes a little untamed. Pocket Canyon. Not a destination. A passage that suggests you reconsider where you were going.

This candle is for that drive.

Cedar opens it — clean and woodsy, the scent of redwoods closing in on a narrow road. Sandalwood blooms at the heart, creamy and slow, the warmth that takes over when the fog drops. Amber and musk at the base, resinous and intimate, the kind of finish that lingers long after the flame goes out.

It is the smell of a back road with no destination. Of rain on redwood bark. Of getting lost on purpose, and being glad about it.
