Iron Resolve: The Official Scent of "I Don't Quit."

 

Grit & Wick presents the candle that embodies pure, stubborn defiance. Born from the sheer, bloody-minded refusal to give in—whether to adversity, bad decisions, or the overwhelming scent of a dozen competing "Cozy Winter Snuggles" candles—Iron Resolve is the scent of a fortified spirit.

This isn't a candle designed for meditation. It's a candle designed for the moment you decide to face the fire, crack a dark joke, and get back to business.

 

Scent Profile: Unyielding Power

 

Forget soft florals and delicate fruit notes. We've bottled the complexity of unyielding strength:

  • Gun Oil: A punchy, metallic, and clean opening note that speaks to preparedness and machinery—the scent of readiness and raw, controlled power.

  • Teakwood: A warm, dense, and distinguished wood base that grounds the fragrance with integrity and permanence. It’s the smell of a solid foundation that won't crumble.

  • Clove: A subtle but persistent spice that adds complexity, warmth, and a necessary bite. It's the kick that reminds you to stay sharp.

 

Why You Need This

 

"Iron Resolve" is more than a candle; it's a mission statement. It’s the constant, aromatic reminder that life's battles—big or small—are fought with humor, grit, and the refusal to fold.

Light it when you need a mental steel-up, when you're facing a tough deadline, or when you simply need your home to smell like unbreakable determination instead of a second-grade potpourri project.

Grit & Wick: Built for endurance. Smells like victory.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

These aren't your average fruity candles—treat them with the respect they deserve to ensure a long life and maximum throw.

General Maintenance & Safety (The Rules)

  • The First Burn: This is the most crucial step. When you first light your candle, allow the entire top surface of wax to melt completely to the edges of the container. This usually takes 2-4 hours, depending on the size. This prevents "tunneling" (where the wick burns straight down the middle) and ensures the candle burns evenly for its lifetime.
  • Wick Trimming (The Must-Do): Before every single burn, trim the wick to 1/4 INCH (about 6 mm). Use a wick trimmer or nail clippers. A long wick causes mushrooming, black smoke, and fast burning.
  • Burn Time Limit: Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Burning longer overheats the container and burns off the fragrance oil too quickly.
  • Stop Point: Discontinue use when only 1/2 INCH (1.2 cm) of wax remains at the bottom. Burning past this point can lead to the glass overheating or cracking.
  • Placement: Always burn your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, children, pets, and flammable materials (like curtains or papers).
