Balsam - Candle 7oz

A refreshing and luscious marriage that combines the essence of sweet balsam, California redwood, a hint of French sage and the bouquet of white flowers. Balsam was the fragrance of Agraria's very first candle, but at the time in 1970, it was just called the “Agraria Candle.” With the introduction of the Bitter Orange candle the name was officially changed to Balsam.

Agraria's Perfume candles are presented in a decorative crystal glass that is a modern interpretation of the woven palm leaf cases that were an Agraria trademark in the 1980s. 

The intricate glass pattern accentuates the movement of the flame to create a luminous and mesmerizing glow. Featuring hand-twisted lead-free wicks, each hand-poured candle is clean-burning and beautifully fragrant.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Agraria means "beautiful flowers growing in the fields," and is the brand name the founders, chose for their hand-made potpourri in the 1970's. First tossed in the back room of their San Francisco shop on Taylor Street, it was full of flowers, herbs, spices and its mysterious new fragrance became known as Bitter Orange. Its unique, spicy fragrance has been described by The New York Times as “uplifting, mysterious and androgynous in its appeal.”
