"Inspired by the scent of the California High Desert after the first rain of the season. Creosote, desert sage, and sun baked rocks." –Allison Kunath
We collaborated on this collection of beautiful glass candles with California-based artist, Allison Kunath, known for her minimalist aesthetic, ethereal geometric watercolors, graceful figurative abstractions, and awe-inspiring murals. Kunath drew each figure with one single unbroken line "capturing the essence of feminine grace, strength, and beauty."
Ten percent of the proceeds from the sale of each one of these candles will be donated to Planned Parenthood, Equality Now, and Fòs Feminista.

Candle Care + Safety
Directions for Optimal Scent Throw and Performance:
-
Make sure you burn your candle in the room its size is best suited for. See the room guide for the candle sizes we offer below:
Travel Candles: Tiny rooms - Powder rooms, hotel rooms
Jar Candles: Small rooms - Offices, entryways, small bedrooms
Classic 2-Wick Candles: Mid-size rooms - Kitchens, bedrooms, smaller living rooms
XL 3-Wick Candles: Large Rooms - Living rooms, high ceilings, wide open spaces - Burn your candle until a full melt pool has formed, usually 4 hours. Because soy wax is a harder wax, it takes more time to burn the candle all the way to the edges. Once the top layer of wax has liquefied, the fragrance should begin to bloom and become stronger with subsequent burns. Patience is rewarded with soy candles, and good things come to those who wait :)
Please keep in mind that because we use 100% soy wax, our candles are, by design, not as super strong as those made or enhanced with paraffin wax. Our reason for using pure soy wax is because it is a sustainable ingredient unlike petroleum-derived paraffin wax. Unlike paraffin-based candles, our candles are designed to be friendly for fragrance-induced migraine and allergy sufferers and sensitive noses.
Candle Safety Instructions
- Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish all candles when you leave a room or before going to sleep.
- Trim the wick to ¼ inch each time before lighting. This ensures a clean burn and helps prevent the flame from getting too large.
- Follow the 2 foot rule - don't place a burning candle near clothing, books, curtains or anything flammable.
- Keep lit candles away from drafts, ceiling fans and any air currents.
- Place candle holders on a stable, heat-resistant surface that is sturdy and large enough to catch any melted wax.
- Extinguish a candle if the flame gets too close to the candle holder or container.
- Place burning candles at least 3 inches apart from one another.
- A burning candle should not be used as a nightlight.
- A candle should not be burned for more than four hours at a time.
- Don’t burn a candle all the way down. For a margin of safety, discontinue burning a candle when 1/2 inch of wax remains in the container.
- Purchase our Candle Care Kit to enhance the longevity and performance of your candles.

Candle Care Tips
I had previously gotten a different candle from this collection so didn't hesitant to try another. Love this one too plus the simple & beautiful astetic!
Love the artwork, scent is very nice and complex, a bit too on the sweet side for me, but we prefer the Mojave Embers.
Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your experience. Please know our team is always here to help if you are unsatisfied with your purchase.
Please visit our returns portal or contact us directly at [email protected]. We hope to hear from you soon and would be glad to help resolve this for you. Thank you.
I have another candle from this collection & I love this one too! Not to mention it's a simple & beautiful astetic too.
This is third candle I have purchased in this scent. I love this aroma!!!! It reminds me of warmth, desert plants, sun baked earth and desert rains. I lived in the Sonoran desert for 7 years and this candle takes me back there
Petrichor - Allison Kunath Artist Edition Candle
I've bought this one repeatedly over the years, it's maybe my favorite candle ever. Please don't ever discontinue it.
First of all, the container is really a lovely piece of art. As usual, candle burns well and fills room with a lovely woodsy pine scent.
Really nice smell, in a pretty jar, highly recommend!
All the candles are consistently top tier, but this one just has everything you could possibly want all in one.
Absolutely love the artistic look and multi scents of this candle. LOVE :two_hearts:
This is a great candle, looks good as a decoration and smells divine. I hope it's here to stay, otherwise I need to stock up.
would love for this scent to become part of the regular collection! it's so complex and has great throw even when not lit
My favorite Brooklyn candle studio candle thus far! (And many of them are superb). This one really transports my whole kitchen/family room to the southwest. We feel like we are on a warm, earthy and ethereal vacation whenever we burn this one.
I was so excited to receive this as I have been hunting for a petrichor candle for the longest time. Well, this isn't it. While is is a lovely scent, with a decent throw, and a very pretty container, I wouldn't describe the scent as remotely close to that after-rain-fall smell. This is more of a woodsy, pine fragrance, though a feminine one. It isn't that aggressive "bathroom fresh" pine scent of masculine shower gels etc. It is soft, delicate and pleasant. I can notice the thyme and sage notes as well, but not really the rose. It is nice, but probably not a repeat purchase for me. I will keep hunting for the photorealistic pine!
A lovely crisp smell of pine, reminiscent of walking through the forest... will buy again.
I love this candle! And the causes behind it. I have lit it for a couple hours almost every day and its only about half way burned. The scent is beautiful but not overpowering. The Jar is also a piece of art, I almost cant wait to burn it all so I can clean it out and reuse it!
I've ordered 6 candles for myself now and a gift set for my friend and we are both obsessed. Every scent is divine and they last for such a long time. I also live the minimalistic packaging. Will continue to order these every other month :)
This is my new favorite candle company. Along with beautiful designs and wonderful aromas the company is run by a women who believes in local empowerment and sustainable sourcing. All the things I look for when I purchase products. Thank you Brooklyn Candle.
Beautiful candle, beautiful scent!
LOVE!
