Category: Candle

The Desert Cedar Essential Oil Candle captures the dry, resinous air of the high desert, where California juniper grows slow and the sun bakes the earth into something you can almost taste. Poured by hand in Juniper Ridge's Oakland workshop, this 7 oz candle is built from domestically sourced soy wax, a natural cotton wick, and steam-distilled California juniper essential oil with no synthetic fragrance, dye, or preservatives anywhere in the formula.

  • Scent profile of sweet cedar resin, warm leather, and sun baked wood layers into a grounded, long-lasting burn rather than a sharp single note.
  • Approximately 40-hour burn time from a soy wax base that burns cleaner and more evenly than paraffin alternatives.
  • Formulated without parabens, phthalates, or petrochemicals, and Leaping Bunny certified cruelty free for full ingredient transparency.

If your idea of a good evening involves the smell of open country and a low flame, this candle earns its place on the shelf. Light it, let the desert in, and take it from there.

Isabella O. ★★★★★

Burned it for the first time last night and the whole room smelled like a sunny hillside after rain hits dry earth. The juniper note is so true to the real desert I half expected to hear cicadas. Gonna be my go-to for quiet evenings.

Evelyn ★★★★★

That waxy, almost dusty top note is exactly what I was hoping for—it smells like actual juniper and sun-scorched earth, not sweetened air. It burns clean with a calm, consistent flame and makes my whole living room smell like I cracked open a tin of the high desert.

George ★★★★★

The scent is so warm and grounded, like stepping into a sun-baked forest with hints of resin in the air. I lit it during a quiet evening and the juniper notes filled the room without being sharp or overpowering. Burns clean and lasts longer than I expected.
