Product Insights
Moodgie's Lilac And Sandalwood Scented Candle is a hand-poured, 50-hour burn soy candle crafted in Montreal from 100% natural soy wax and phthalate-free oils, with a three-layer perfume pyramid delivering a strong scent throw (4/5) preserved by UV-protective amber glass and a two-week cure. Priced at $35 ($0.70/hr), it offers burn value aligned with other hand-poured soy candles while requiring a trimmed cotton wick for a clean burn. Founder Joël Gamache launched the federally incorporated brand in late 2020 after leaving his job and selling his home, centering the brand on scent as a tool for presence and poetry. The main tradeoff: the robust fragrance intensity may not suit those preferring subtle scents, but it reflects the perfume-inspired composition and artisanal commitment.
