Homesick New Jersey Scented Candle — 13.75 oz Soy Jar, Candy Apple & Sea Breeze, 60–80 Hour Burn

Homesick's New Jersey scented candle is a 13.75 oz hand-poured soy blend jar candle that fills rooms with candy apple, cranberry, sea breeze, and warm vanilla for a long-lasting 60–80 hour burn.

This candle is designed to evoke the feeling of New Jersey’s coastline—sweet fruit top notes meet airy cotton and ocean accords, rounded out by sugar, vanilla, and musk. Crafted in small batches, the Homesick New Jersey candle uses a natural soy wax blend and organic cotton wick to maximize scent throw while minimizing soot and synthetic additives. The jar format makes it easy to place on a shelf, nightstand, or kitchen counter so familiar aromas can transport you to seaside nights and boardwalk treats.
