MAN CANDLES BY UNCOMMONGOODS RECOMMENDED BY WHOM YOU KNOW




"Why don't people make candles with scents that everyone likes?" 15-year-old Hart Main asked, sniffing at the overly perfumed candles his sister was selling for a school fundraiser. Recognizing the opportunity right under his nose, the young entrepreneur combined his passion for helping his community with his interest in making a bolder breed of candle by donating to local soup kitchens and using the empty cans to hold his extraordinary scents. Hart and his family collaborate with local chandlers to craft soy-wax-blend candles that possess the kinds of familiar aromas that no man (or woman) would turn their nose up at. Hart's current lineup includes natural, nostalgic and savory scents like dirt, fresh cut grass, sawdust, campfire, pizza, and coffee. Each comes individually packed in a gift box. Handmade in Ohio. The wax is a 100% renewable resource, a soy and vegetable wax blend.  Earlier today, we mentioned that men are not easy to shop for, and with these Man Candles by UncommonGoods we believe you will also be able to satisfy most men on your "nice" list!  We like the fresh scent of grass the most as it evokes an upbeat, clear scent. Campfire is one for a guy more rugged with character, and we like coffee for that guy who is the right pick-me-up in your life!  With all the scents that you have to choose from, surely you will find one that satisfies each man that you are looking for a gorgeous gift for.

Each candle has a wax color unique to its corresponding scent. New York Style Pizza has red wax, Fresh Cut Grass has dark green wax; Dirt, Coffee, Sawdust, and Campfire have tan wax.
Please note: because of the use of natural ingredients such as soy wax and coconut oil, during the summer months, these candles can get warm in transit and the wax may become very soft or in some cases may melt. In most cases, you should be able to put the candles into the fridge or freezer and still be able to use them. Please keep in mind that if you put them on the radiator or in direct sunlight the wax could become very soft. Please store in a cool place when not in use.
