Sage & Walnut Candle
There’s something deeply comforting about walking into a space that smells exactly how you want to feel. The Sage & Walnut Candle by LAFCO does just that—transforming your home into a sanctuary of warmth, elegance, and thoughtful calm. With a scent profile that’s rich in character and complexity, this candle invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy the quiet luxury of a well-crafted fragrance.
From the moment the flame is lit, this sage candle begins to unfold with layers of sensory detail. The opening notes are a subtle nod to freshness, with hints of sweet orange that lift the fragrance and prepare the senses for what’s to come. Quickly, the heart of the scent takes over. Star anise adds a soft spice, while the combination of juniper sage and walnut introduces an herbaceous, slightly nutty accord that’s equal parts cozy and refined. The base is where the candle truly shines. Sandalwood, oud, and guaiac wood provide a grounding richness that lingers long after the candle has been extinguished.
Imagine the quiet of a private library lined with vintage leather books, the golden light of a late afternoon sun, and the aroma of polished wood and earth-bound herbs. That’s the feeling this candle captures. It’s sophisticated without being formal, nostalgic without being dated, and cozy without sacrificing style.
Every element of the Sage & Walnut Candle is made with the same attention to detail that defines LAFCO’s House & Home collection. Hand-poured into a reusable, handblown glass vessel, each candle is unique in its artistry and elegance. The glass is weighty, substantial, and designed to live on long after the wax has burned away—whether as a vase, keepsake jar, or simply as a decorative object. The clean-burning soy wax blend ensures a smooth, even burn, while the 100% cotton wick allows for a pure, consistent flame.
The fragrance itself is crafted from a concentrated blend of essential oils, creating a scent that is layered and nuanced. It’s strong enough to fill a space but never cloying, allowing the aroma to unfold slowly and linger comfortably.
The versatility of this sage candle makes it a seamless fit for any space. In a library or study, it complements wood accents and encourages focus. In a living room, it adds a sense of grounded elegance to your gatherings. In a bedroom, it becomes a quiet backdrop to rest and restoration.
What sets this fragrance apart is its ability to feel seasonal yet timeless. While many associate sage with autumnal moments, the balance of herbs, woods, and warmth in this candle makes it ideal year-round. It’s equally suited to a snowy winter afternoon or a quiet spring evening. The blend of walnut and oud adds a unique dimension, elevating it from a simple herbal fragrance to a luxurious signature scent.
Let the Sage & Walnut Candle become part of your home’s identity. Rediscover what it means to relax in a space that reflects your style and soothes your senses. With every burn, this candle brings a quiet richness that feels both grounding and elevated.
