The soul of our local mountain, bottled.

There's a specific scent to the air on a cool day up on Mt. Ashland—a sharp, clean fragrance of high-altitude trees that instantly grounds you. This candle is our tribute to that feeling, born from countless hikes and ski trips on our beloved local peak.

We blended pure essential oils of spruce, pine, and fir to capture the authentic, complex aroma of the Southern Oregon forest. It's not a simple pine scent; it's the whole experience—the crisp air, the resinous bark, the damp earth—transforming any room into a serene woodland escape.

Every mountain has its own scent. It's more than just 'pine'—it's the damp earth, the cold air, the specific blend of trees that grow there. We wanted to bottle that exact feeling of standing on Mt. Ashland, taking a deep breath, and feeling grounded by the forest.

Why You'll Love The Mt. Ashland Candle

  • A True Forest Aroma: A complex, layered blend of pure spruce, pine, and fir essential oils that smells like a real mountain forest, not a synthetic imitation.
  • Brings the Outdoors In: The perfect way to create a cozy, woodland atmosphere and a sense of calm connection to nature, any time of year.
  • A Clean & Natural Wax Burn: Hand-poured with our clean-burning, natural wax blend. As we continuously improve our craft, your candle will be made with either our classic 100% soy wax or our new, even smoother-burning soy and coconut wax blend. Both are non-toxic, renewable, and kind to your home.
  • A Local Favorite: Inspired by and named for our iconic Southern Oregon peak, this scent is a tribute to the place we call home.

The Ritual

Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting. Light the candle on a dreary afternoon to bring the serenity of the forest indoors, or in the evening to create a cozy, cabin-like atmosphere. Its fresh, woody scent is perfect for clearing the mind and grounding the spirit. Always burn within sight.

This Is Why We Do It

"You guys nailed it. I lit this last night and it was like I was back up on the mountain. Closed my eyes and could almost feel the cold air. Don't ever stop making this."

— A customer at our Medford shop

Complete Your Ritual

Create a full forest-bathing experience. Start your day with the invigorating Mt. Ashland Soap Bar in the shower, and carry the essence of the woods with you by applying the earthy, resinous notes of our Deep Forest Perfume.

Bring the mountain home.

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep out of reach of children and pets.


  • To promote even burning, keep candles away from drafts.


  • Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch. Trim the wick with scissors while it is still warm and flexible.


  • Never touch the wick when it is cold as it may break.


  • When burning candles, let them burn long enough each time to create a pool of wax that almost covers the diameter of the candle.


  • The first time you light your candle, let it burn uninterrupted for 2 ½ to 3 hours.


  • If it appears that the wax pool is not centered, use a non-flammable implement to push the wick towards the thicker side.


  • If a pillar does drip, extinguish and allow it to cool before re-lighting. Plug any channels with wax.


  • To avoid smoke, extinguish candles by pushing the wick into the wax pool with a non-flammable implement, then gently pulling it straight.


  • If a thick wall develops from not burning long enough, cut the candle wall down to the level of the wax pool and resume proper burning times (1 hour for every inch in diameter).

What is the story behind this scent? This scent is a love letter to our local peak, Mt. Ashland. It was inspired by the crisp, clean air you breathe on a hike through its forests. We blended the essential oils of the trees that grow there—spruce, pine, and fir—to capture that specific, grounding feeling of being immersed in nature.

What kind of wax do you use? Our candles are hand-poured with a clean-burning, natural wax blend. As we continuously improve our craft, your candle will be made with either our classic 100% soy wax or our new, even smoother-burning soy and coconut wax blend. Both are non-toxic, renewable, and kind to your home.

Is this a seasonal or holiday scent? While it's incredibly popular during the holidays because of its authentic "Christmas tree" aroma, it's a year-round bestseller. Anyone who loves the fresh, clean scent of the forest will enjoy it any time of year.
