**Fresh from the vine.** Inspired by founders Matthew and Andrew’s passion for gardening at their Hudson Valley home, this tomato candle recreates the abundance of aroma that permeates through a flourishing vegetable garden in late summer.
**tomato. (Fresh):** A fresh and verdant scent that opens with a beautiful mélange of freshly picked herbs – aromatic basil, calming lavender, and cool mint leaves – as vines of green ivy intertwine with the rich sweetness of a perfectly ripe tomato captured from the San Marzano leaf cut at the home of a master perfumer in France. Hints of uplifting mandarin and woodsy petitgrain engage the senses while notes of earthy cedarwood and green pepper give the scent a soft, clean finish.
*For the best burn experience, keep the following in mind:*
* The first time you light your candle, allow it to burn until the wax pool melts all the way to the edge; for a larger candle, this may take several hours. Wax has "memory," so if it is extinguished with a partial pool, that will prevent a full, even pool from forming in the future.
* Trim your wick each time you light the candle, removing any "bloom" from the previous burn. We recommend lighting a wick that is 1/4-1/2" in length.
* Ensure that your candle is placed on a heat-safe surface.
* Do not allow wick trimmings, dust, or other materials to accumulate in the wax pool.
* To ensure safety and longevity, be sure to check the bottom of your candle for additional instructions, including details on when to discontinue use.
**A tip from founders Matthew + Andrew:** Our candles have such a clean burn that the glasses are reusable. We use them as stylish drinking glasses at home and in the office.
