Patchouli and Dark Amber Concrete Candle Wooden Wick

Patchouli and dark amber bring a deep, resinous mood to this concrete scented candle, made for slow evenings and low light. The soy wax carries a warm, earthy fragrance, while the wooden wick adds a soft fireside crackle as it burns.

The scent in the room

• Patchouli gives the fragrance its earthy, grounded character, with a depth that suits evening light.
• Dark amber adds warmth and shadow, giving the scent a richer, more enveloping feel.
• The wooden wick brings a gentle crackle, closer to a small hearth than a silent candle flame.
• The concrete vessel has a raw, pared-back look that sits easily with modern, minimal or natural interiors.
• It works well as a table centrepiece, a bedside ritual candle, or a steady presence on a mantel or shelf.

Soy wax and a wooden wick

The candle is poured with soy wax and fragrance, set around a wooden wick. Soy wax is a plant-based candle wax, appreciated for the way it carries scent with a smooth, even melt when cared for properly.

Wooden wicks behave a little differently from cotton wicks. They need to be kept neatly trimmed, but they reward that care with a small, atmospheric crackle as the flame settles.

A concrete vessel with a second life

The vessel is made from concrete, giving it a tactile, stone-like presence. Concrete naturally carries small variations, marks and quirks, so each pot has its own character rather than a factory-perfect surface.

Felt pads on the base help protect the surface beneath it. Once the candle has been fully used and the vessel cleaned, the pot can be repurposed in your home, including as a small plant pot.

How to burn it well

Place the candle on a heat-proof holder or plate before lighting. Trim the wooden wick to about 5 mm each time, and let the wax melt evenly across the surface where possible before blowing it out.

Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from curtains, books, dried flowers and anything flammable. Allow the concrete vessel to cool before moving it.

Where it belongs

Concrete has moved from architecture into home objects because it feels honest, grounded and quietly sculptural. Here, that raw material is softened by scent and flame: earthy patchouli, warm dark amber, a flickering wooden wick and a vessel that stays useful after the wax has gone. It suits interiors that favour texture over ornament, and moments that feel better with a little ceremony.

Size and details

This candle weighs 900 g. It is made from concrete, soy wax, a wooden wick, fragrance and rosewood, and is made in China.

A gift with atmosphere

It makes a considered gift for someone who loves warm, woody scents, calm interiors, or candles that feel substantial on the table. The reusable concrete vessel gives it a longer life than the burn alone.

Common questions

Why does the wooden wick sometimes need trimming?
A wooden wick burns best when it is short and clean. If the flame looks too high or uneven, extinguish the candle, let it cool, trim the wick back, then relight it.

Can the concrete pot be reused for a plant?
Yes, once the candle is fully finished and the remaining wax has been cleaned out. Use it for a small plant, and keep the felt pads underneath to help protect your furniture.

Will the concrete vessel look exactly the same on every candle?
No. Concrete naturally shows small variations in tone and surface, which are part of the character of this range.
