just before dawn | bergamot + honey + chamomile
Meet Just Before Dawn — the peaceful moment when the world is still and a new day is beginning. Bright bergamot and delicate white tea open with a soft, refreshing glow, while jasmine, lavender, and chamomile create a heart inspired by sunlit fields and quiet mornings surrounded by nature. Cedar, musk, and honey settle into a warm, grounding finish, capturing the gentle comfort of the earth waking beneath the first light.
Fresh, calming, and quietly uplifting, Just Before Dawn was made for early mornings, open windows, slow rituals, and moments of reflection before the day begins.

directions
First Burn:
Trim your cotton wick to about 1/4” before every burn for a clean, steady flame and less soot.
Coconut Apricot Wax:
Our coconut–apricot wax blend burns differently than traditional soy wax. It may take a little longer to reach a full melt pool, and you might notice some wax clinging to the sides at first — totally normal! As the jar warms, the wax gradually evens out, giving you a clean, consistent burn. Unlike 100% soy wax, which can “tunnel,” our coconut blend has less memory, so you’ll enjoy every last bit of your candle.
Extinguishing:
Use a candle snuffer to gently put out the flame—avoid blowing to prevent wax splatter. Don’t burn longer than 4 hours at a time, and retire the candle when about ½” of wax remains.
Fixing Tunneling:
If uneven melting happens half way down the jar, carefully scrape wax edges with a butter knife or try wrapping foil around the top of the jar to reflect heat evenly.
