Aurora Candle

Price: $39.00 CAD

How to Burn Your Milk Jar Candle

  1. Trim the wooden wick to approximately 2–3 mm before each burn.
  2. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts.
  3. During the first burn, allow the melted wax to reach close to the edge of the vessel to help prevent tunnelling.
  4. Keep the candle away from children, pets and flammable materials.
  5. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

If the flame becomes unusually large, extinguish the candle, allow it to cool and trim the wick before relighting. Always follow the complete safety instructions on the candle label.

A Versatile Woodsy Canadian Candle

Aurora is a good choice for anyone who wants a warm wood fragrance without the smoke, spice or sweetness found in many traditional masculine-style candles. Its combination of teakwood, mahogany and aspen feels polished and versatile.

It makes a thoughtful housewarming, birthday or host gift and works especially well for shoppers who enjoy cologne-inspired fragrances, natural woods and warm evening scents.

A Candle That Gives Back

Milk Jar Candle Co. was founded in Calgary with inclusion at the centre of its purpose. The company provides equitable professional opportunities and donates $1 from every Milk Jar-made product to initiatives supporting inclusive employment, training and community spaces.
