Samhain - Merlot, Resin, and Patchouli

As the days grow dark and the veil grows thin, the spectre of Samhain draws near. Our unique fragrance for this mysterious holiday is a dark, sultry blend of merlot wine, smoky patchouli, and deep, subtle resins. Heed the call of the night.

All of our candles are hand-poured at our workshop using pure high quality 100% US-grown sustainable soy wax and lead-free eco-cotton wicks. Our fragrances never contain any parabens, pthalates, or acetones.

What Is Samhain?

The origin of today's Halloween, the tradition of Samhain travels to us from Ireland's distant past. The traditional Celtic beginning of winter, Samhain is the period when the veil, the invisible barrier between the world of mortals and the Otherworld of the gods, is at its thinnest. At this time, spirits of the dead, as well as things much more malevolent, are able to pass into the mortal realm to do good or ill. Historically, children would carve wicked faces into hollowed-out turnips and put candles in them to scare evil spirits away, the ancestor of our jack o'lanterns.

Samhain is also closely associated with the Morrigan, a powerful pan-Celtic goddess of war, triumph, and guardianship ("rig," in Indo-European languages, denotes a king or queen who has earned their place by protecting their people). On Samhain, the Morrigan was said to ride forth from Oweynagat, or the Cave of the Cats, near the modern city of Roscommon.

Tips and Safety Warnings

CANDLE TIPS:
- Before first lighting any candle, make sure to trim the wick down to 1/4", and always trim the wick down again before relighting. We suggest wick trimmers for this purpose if candles are a constant in your life.
- The first time you light a candle, allow it to burn for at least one hour to allow the flame to form a wax pool across the entire top of the candle. This will help prevent tunneling over the course of the candle's life.
- While we always use 100% premium fragrance oils, they are still artificial recreations of scents and cannot be called all-natural. If you are interested in candles fragrances with all-natural additives, try our essential oils aromatherapy candles!

SAFETY WARNINGS:
- Always burn candles within sight.
- Never burn on or near flammable objects or drafts.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
- Stop using candle when less than 1/4" of wax remains.
- Container may be hot when and after candle is lit. Allow wax to cool completely before handling.
