Back Forty
Strength
9 oz soy candle
40+ hour burn time
Made in Missouri
Description
Back Forty is a deeper, more grounded scent made for the homes that feel connected to the land — where gravel dust settles on the truck, the tree line glows at sunset, and the best part of the day is when everything finally gets quiet.
This candle has a warm, masculine feel with notes of worn leather, dark woods, soft smoke, and warm spice. It’s cozy without being sweet, rustic without being rough, and smooth enough to burn all year long.
Back Forty feels like an old leather chair, a wood-paneled room, a cool breeze coming through the screen door, and the comfort of being home after a long day outside.
Hand-poured in small batches using soy wax, a cotton wick, and phthalate-free fragrance oil.
Scent Notes
Worn Leather, Aged Woods, Soft Smoke, Warm Spice
Best For
Living rooms, offices, entryways, rainy days, cool evenings, farmhouse spaces, and anyone who loves leather, woods, and rustic Midwestern comfort.
Candle Care
- Use a wick trimmer to trim wick to 1/4 inch before each burn.
- Use a snuffer to extinguish your candle safely.
- Burn on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, children, pets, and anything flammable.
- Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Stop use when 1/2 inch of wax remains.
