WoodWick Sand & Driftwood 9.7 oz Medium Hourglass Candle — Creamy Coastal Vanilla with Crackling Wooden Wick

WoodWick Sand & Driftwood is a 9.7 oz medium hourglass candle scented with warm vanilla bean and driftwood notes, featuring a natural wooden wick that gently crackles as it burns.

This candle blends sun-washed wood, sea grass, and soft sand with a creamy vanilla heart to create a relaxed coastal aroma. Presented in WoodWick's signature hourglass jar, the fragrance unfolds from a bright top of vanilla absolute and sugary accents to a comforting base of vanilla bean and sugar cane. The natural wooden wick provides a subtle crackling sound that enhances the atmosphere without overpowering the scent.

What does the Sand & Driftwood candle smell like?

The scent opens with a sweet, slightly green vanilla absolute and buttery sugary notes that lead into a warm, bakery-like sugar cookie center. The base is anchored by vanilla bean and sugar cane, balanced by weathered wood and sea-grass undertones to evoke a breezy shoreline.

• Top notes: vanilla absolute and light sugary highlights
• Middle notes: buttery sugar cookie and graham cracker warmth
• Base notes: vanilla bean, sugar cane, driftwood and sea grass
• Overall: creamy, warm, and subtly coastal

How does the wooden wick change the experience?

WoodWick's natural wooden wick produces a gentle, campfire-like crackle that creates an intimate, tactile ambience. It burns evenly to help distribute fragrance consistently and adds a sensory layer that standard cotton wicks do not provide.

• Soft crackling sound for a cozy atmosphere
• Even melt pool encourages steady fragrance release
• Clean-burning design when trimmed and used per instructions

How long will a 9.7 oz medium hourglass candle burn?

A 9.7 oz medium hourglass typically offers several dozen hours of burn time when used correctly. Actual burn length depends on room conditions and how often the candle is lit, but proper first burns and wick maintenance improve longevity.

• Suggested: burn until the top surface is fully melted on first use
• Trim wick to 1/4" between uses to reduce soot and extend life
• Keep away from drafts for an even burn

How should I care for and display this candle?

Place the hourglass candle on a heat-safe surface, away from flammable items and drafts. Maintain the wick and extinguish safely; the glass jar and understated design make it suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, or as a gift centerpiece.

• Trim wick before each lighting to about 1/4"
• Allow full melt pool on first use to prevent tunneling
• Store out of direct sunlight to preserve fragrance
