A hand-poured soy wax candle with a wooden wick and a Twilight Vine fragrance, from the Greenman Rituals range — presented in the signature green glass jar, burning approximately 26 hours, with a fragrance that opens with juicy berry tones and settles into a smooth, warm base.
What to Expect
The wooden wick burns with a soft, steady crackling sound — similar to a small fire — which adds an auditory dimension to the candle experience that a cotton wick cannot replicate.
Twilight Vine's arc suits evening use: the berry opening is bright, the floral middle is lighter and airier, and the base settles into a warm, grounding close that lingers after the candle is extinguished.
Soy wax burns more cleanly than paraffin — less soot, a more even melt pool, and a gradual fragrance release that builds over the first 20 minutes rather than hitting immediately.
The green glass jar is part of the Greenman Rituals visual identity — earthy and nature-connected, suited to botanical and nature-led interior styles. Reusable once the candle is spent.
Soy Wax, Wooden Wick, Green Glass
Hand-poured soy wax candle. Wooden wick. Twilight Vine fragrance: berry top notes, airy floral middle, smooth warm base. Green glass jar. Burn time: approximately 26 hours. Confirm exact wax weight and jar dimensions from the product specification.
Getting the Best Burn
Trim the wooden wick to approximately 5mm before each burn. On first use, allow the candle to burn until the entire wax surface melts to the jar edge — this prevents tunnelling and ensures an even melt pool on all subsequent burns. Never burn for more than 4 hours in a single session. Extinguish with a snuffer. Keep away from draughts, children, and flammable materials. Stop use when approximately 1cm of wax remains.
Greenman Rituals and Twilight Vine
The Greenman is a motif from European folk tradition — a face formed of leaves and foliage, associated with the natural world, seasons, and the wildness of forests. The Greenman Rituals range applies this earthy, nature-connected identity to soy wax candles with wooden wicks and botanically-inspired fragrances. Twilight Vine evokes the transitional quality of dusk in a garden — the moment when colours deepen, the air cools, and the day settles.
As a Gift
The crackling wooden wick, distinctive green jar, and evocative fragrance name make this a strong gift candle for anyone drawn to nature-led, botanical, or earthy aesthetics.
Common Questions
Why does a wooden wick crackle?
The wood fibres retain small amounts of moisture and air pockets that release as the wick burns, producing the characteristic crackling sound. Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn to keep the crackle clean and consistent.
How does soy wax compare to paraffin?
Soy wax burns more slowly, produces less soot, and releases fragrance more gradually than paraffin. It is also a renewable, plant-derived material.
Can I reuse the green glass jar?
Yes — once spent, freeze the jar until the remaining wax contracts and lifts out, then clean with warm soapy water. Works well as a small plant pot, storage vessel, or tea light holder.
