What wax is this candle made with?

Phoenix Crafted candles use a coconut soy and beeswax blend. Available sizes, wick choices, vessel details, and fragrance notes are listed on this page.

How should I care for the first burn?

Trim the wick as directed, place the candle on a stable heat-resistant surface, and allow the melt pool to develop toward the vessel edges without exceeding the recommended burn time. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

How do I choose between a cotton wick and a wooden wick?

Cotton wicks provide a familiar steady flame. Wooden wicks add a subtle crackle and a different visual experience. Choose the option that best fits the atmosphere and care routine you prefer.

Why can a handmade candle vary slightly?

Small variations in wax appearance, color, surface texture, label placement, wood grain, and fragrance character can occur because each candle is hand poured in small batches.

How strong will the fragrance be in my room?

Perceived fragrance strength depends on candle size, scent profile, room size, airflow, ceiling height, and burn conditions. Choose a size and fragrance family suited to the space and follow proper candle care.

What if the fragrance is not right for me?

Eligible home-fragrance purchases may qualify under Phoenix Crafted’s current scent-swap terms. Review the Shipping and Scent Swap page for eligibility, timing, and instructions.

The Experience

Black currant and pomegranate open with lush dark-fruit depth. Absinthe cuts through the sweetness with a cool aperitif lift before oakmoss and amber create a smooth, tailored finish.

Burn Guide

10 oz: Approximately 55–65 hours
14 oz: Approximately 70–80 hours
18 oz: Approximately 85–95 hours

Burn time, scent strength, flame character, and room coverage are estimates and vary with normal use conditions.

Ingredients & Our Promise

Premium coconut soy and beeswax blend, phthalate-free and paraben-free fragrance oils, lead-free cotton or untreated natural wood wick depending on variant, no added synthetic dyes, and small-batch hand-pouring in North Carolina. Because the blend contains beeswax, this candle is not vegan.

Candle Care & Safety

Place on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Trim cotton wicks to approximately 1/4 inch or wooden wicks to approximately 1/8–3/16 inch before each burn. Burn no longer than four hours at a time. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Bring dark currant, aperitif brightness, moss, and amber into the room.

Black Currant Reserve

From $24.00

Choose candle size by the exact product, room, fragrance, vessel width, wick system, and your normal burn routine—not ounces alone.

Phoenix Crafted vessel families and available sizes can change. The live product page is the source of truth for current size, wick, burn-time estimate, and availability.

Quick Size Strategy

Use case	Practical starting point	What matters most
Trying a new fragrance	Choose a smaller available candle, tealight, votive, wax melt, or discovery format.	Low commitment and room fit
Bedroom or compact room	Start conservatively.	Airflow, fragrance family, sensitivity, safe supervision
Living room	Choose a medium or larger available vessel when the product is designed for the space.	Vessel width, wick system, fragrance intensity
Open-concept space	Use one suitable anchor fragrance before adding more sources.	Ceiling height, HVAC, connected zones, fragrance family
Gift	Choose a versatile current format or use a gift/discovery option when preferences are uncertain.	Recipient, room, scent preference, presentation

Why Ounces Do Not Tell the Whole Story

Net weight tells you how much candle wax and fragrance are in the vessel. It does not tell you the full burn behavior.

Two candles with similar net weights can use different vessel widths, wick systems, fragrances, and formulas. Those differences can change melt-pool development, fragrance release, and total burn time.

How to Choose by Room

Small rooms

Start with a conservative format. Bathrooms, offices, and compact bedrooms can concentrate fragrance quickly.

Medium rooms

A current medium-format candle may suit regular use, depending on airflow and fragrance strength.

Large or open rooms

Choose a product designed and tested for broader coverage. Do not assume the largest available candle is automatically the strongest or best choice.

For room-by-room fragrance planning, read Best Candle Scents for Every Room.

Burn-Time Estimates

Burn-time estimates are product-specific. Actual performance can vary with wick maintenance, fragrance, room conditions, vessel design, and how the candle is used.

Use the estimate on the exact product page rather than applying one vessel-family estimate to every candle.

Wick Systems

Wick material and count are selected for the specific vessel and formula. A wider vessel may use a different wick configuration than a narrower candle.

Follow the exact care instructions supplied with the candle. Read the Candle Care Guide for general safety and troubleshooting.
