Bold bourbon, enticing beignets, musky amber, and fragrant nicotiana leaf are reminiscent of long strolls in the French Quarter basking in the magic of North America's most fantastic city. Sweet. Smoky. Intoxicating. Deep.
Vibrant and vintage. Mysterious and magical. To go cups on Frenchman street. Second lines in Treme. The patio at Kermit's with a just right breeze and surprise fireworks. People watching in Jackson Square. A brass band cover of your favorite song. Cafe Du Monde - no matter how long the line is. A new gris gris bag. Grilled smoked oysters and red beans and rice. Jazz. Congo Square. Heaven must be like this.

Hand poured, performance cotton wick, vegan wax blend. 7 oz = 35-40 hours of burn time.
Tips for getting the most of your candle...
*Burn your new candle at least 2-3 hours the first time you light it. This will allow the entire top layer of wax to liquify and promote a clean burn that doesn't waste wax. This prevents tunneling of your candle. Wax has a memory so start off right!
*Do not leave a burning candle unsupervised, near kiddos, or surrounded by flammable objects. I also keep my candles away from the wall. Do not burn over four hours at a time. Safety first!
*Before relighting your candle trim.the.wick. (Every time.) I cannot overstate the importance of this! The correct length is 1/4-1/8 of an inch. I snagged a handy wick trimmer for just this purpose. Seriously such a crucial item for preventing soot and prolonging candle life. You can also use your fingers and pinch the blackened little "mushroom" off between burns so don't let lack of a wick trimmer stop you. Lighting the untrimmed wick will lead to smoke and a hotter than desirable burn which is dangerous and depletes your candle faster.
