The ellipse shape of the Woodwick candle creates a wider opening for a fully melted wax pool that produces a more consistent fragrance experience. The premium paraffin and soy waxes are blended with highly concentrated fragrances to produce a beautiful burn with no messy residue. The exclusive, patented wooden wick creates a long, dancing flame for fireplace-like ambiance. Wicks are handcrafted for each candle and produce a generous wax pool with a fast fragrance release. Burn time may vary.
