Bound & Burned Candle - Grumpy x Sunshine

❥ WE SEE YOU. YOU LIKE THE BROODY ONES ❥
The grumpy, emotionally unavailable ones who insist they don’t care... until they absolutely do. Fresh. Bitter. Warm. Irritating in the way you secretly enjoy.

Sharp, zesty citrus with a loud, sunny confidence that refuses to tone itself down for anyone, slowly wearing down worn leather and soft woods, guarded and warm, like someone who didn’t plan on letting you in.

Craft Notes

• Extended burn soy wax (higher melt point for slower burn)
• Cotton wick for a clean, even burn
• 40-hour burn time*
• Hand poured in small batches, always

*Based on test burns, results may vary with wick trimming and environment.

FRAGRANCE NOTES
A vivid blend of sweet and bitter citrus - grapefruit, pomelo, mandarin, and yuzu brightened with lemon peel - softened by a subtle base of worn leather and dry cedarwood.

First burn = commitment.
Let the melt pool reach the edges before blowing it out.
Tunnelling is tragic, for candles and character arcs.

Trim your wick. Every. Single. Time.
Before each burn, snip it to about 5mm.
A long wick burns hot, fast, and messy. Fun for romance novels, terrible for candles.

No marathon sessions.
4 hours max per burn.
She’s hot, not immortal.

Don’t burn to the bitter end.
Leave 1cm of wax at the bottom of the jar.
It’s safety, not unfinished business.

Never leave her unattended.
Romantic, yes. Smart? No.
