Palo Santo + Citrus Custom Handcrafted Soy Candle | Small-Batch Eco-Friendly

Close your eyes and imagine the first light of morning in a sun-warmed room—earthy, grounding palo santo rising from a smoldering stick, brightened by a burst of fresh citrus that lifts the whole space. That's the experience the Palo Santo + Citrus Candle delivers, every single time you strike a match.

Hand-poured in small batches by The Marian Collection in Jacksonville, Florida, this candle is crafted with a premium soy wax blend for a clean, slow burn that fills your space without the toxins of paraffin. The phthalate-free fragrance oil is complex and intentional—earthy and sacred at the base, bright and energizing at the top. It's the kind of scent that makes a room feel both grounded and alive.

The Scent Story

Palo santo—Spanish for "holy wood"—has been burned for centuries in South American spiritual and healing traditions for its grounding, clarifying properties. Its scent is unmistakable: warm, woody, slightly sweet, with a resinous depth that lingers long after the flame is extinguished.

We paired it with citrus to create balance—the brightness of lemon or orange zest cutting through the earthiness of the wood, creating a fragrance that is simultaneously calming and energizing. This is the candle for morning rituals, creative work sessions, meditation, or any moment when you want your space to feel intentional and alive.

Custom Made & Eco-Friendly

This candle is custom handcrafted by The Marian Collection in small batches, ensuring quality and freshness with every pour. Our commitment to cleaner burning:

• Premium soy wax blend — cleaner burning than paraffin, longer lasting, and made from a renewable resource
• Phthalate-free fragrance oil — no hormone-disrupting chemicals
• Up to 50 hours of burn time — exceptional value for a hand-poured candle
• Small-batch production — every candle poured with care, not mass-produced
• Jacksonville, Florida made — supporting a local small business with every purchase

Our Curation Process

At The Marian Collection, we develop our candle fragrances based on three principles: scent integrity (complex, layered profiles that evolve as the candle burns), clean formulation (phthalate-free, soy-based, thoughtfully sourced), and aesthetic cohesion (scents that complement the warmth and character of a curated vintage home).

Palo Santo + Citrus was developed for customers who want something beyond the expected—a candle that grounds and energizes simultaneously, that feels spiritual without being precious, and that works as beautifully in a modern minimalist space as it does in a maximalist vintage interior.

Candle Care

• Trim wick to ¼" before each burn for a clean, even flame
• Allow wax to melt to the edges on the first burn to prevent tunneling
• Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time
• Keep away from drafts, children, and pets
• Never leave a burning candle unattended
• Stop burning when ½" of wax remains

Perfect For

• Morning rituals and meditation
• Creative work and focus sessions
• Gifting—arrives beautifully and ready to give
• Anyone who loves earthy, grounding, and spiritually-inspired scents
• Pairing with room sprays for a layered scent experience
