When Emerald Awakening Fits:

Emerald Awakening is made for the moment you've decided you're done for the day. Light it when the laptop closes, after the kitchen is cleaned up, before an evening bath, or whenever you're ready to leave the day's demands where they belong.

Part of our Iyashi collection, Emerald Awakening combines bright bergamot, lemon, and orange with the green character of matcha and black tea. A touch of sea salt adds depth before the fragrance settles into warm sandalwood and creamy notes. The result is fresh and green at first, then smooth and warm as it unfolds—an intriguing fragrance for the quieter end of the day.

Top Notes:
Bergamot, lemon, and sweet orange open with a crisp citrus brightness.

Product FAQs

▸Not sure which scent is right for you?

Learn how to choose a candle when you're feeling overwhelmed. →

▸ Which size should I choose?

Mini tin (1½ oz): 5-6 hours burn time. Perfect for travel, testing new scents, or small spaces like bathrooms.

4 oz tin: 18-20 hours burn time. Ideal for personal spaces, offices, or trying a new scent before committing to larger sizes.

8 oz glass jar: 40-45 hours burn time. Our most popular size for bedrooms, living areas, and daily ritual use.

12 oz glass jar: 60-65 hours burn time. Best value for your primary ritual scents and larger rooms up to 400 sq ft.

All sizes provide the same quality scent throw—choose based on how often you'll use it and the space you're filling.

▸ How long do your candles burn?

Our candles burn approximately 5 hours per ounce:

Mini tin (1½ oz): 5-6 hours
4 oz: 18-20 hours
8 oz: 40-45 hours
12 oz: 60-65 hours

Burn times can vary based on air temperature, drafts, and how long you burn the candle each session. Proper wick trimming helps maximize burn time.

▸ How do I care for my Nagomi candle?

Good news: Coconut apricot wax doesn't require special first-burn protocols. You can burn your Nagomi candle for any length of time—perfect for quick 5-minute rituals or longer meditation sessions.

Wick trimming: Due to our high fragrance concentration, the wick may occasionally "mushroom" at the tip. Simply trim to ¼ inch before lighting for optimal burning.

That's it. No complicated rules. Just light, enjoy, and trim the wick as needed.

▸ How strong is the scent?

Our coconut apricot wax delivers strong scent throw. Most Nagomi candles are medium-strong, depending on the specific fragrance blend.

Coverage: One candle easily fills the average room (up to 400 sq ft). Many customers report scent extending beyond the room where it's burning.

The fragrance is designed to enhance your ritual practice—noticeable without overwhelming, present without demanding attention.

▸ How are Nagomi Candles made?

Wax: Premium coconut apricot wax blend—no paraffin, no soy. Chosen for superior scent throw, clean burning, and sustainability.

Fragrance: Phthalate-free and paraben-free oils. Vegan, gluten-free, and cruelty-free.

Vessels: Glass jars (4 oz, 8 oz, 12 oz) made from 50% recycled material, fully recyclable and reusable. Metal tins for mini and 4 oz sizes.

Wicks: Lead-free cotton wicks for clean, even burning.

Safety: ASTM F2179 certified and California Proposition 65 compliant.

Learn more about our materials, scent philosophy, and five-minute rituals on The Nagomi  Approach page.

▸ Can I reuse the vessel after the candle is done?

Yes! Our glass vessels (4 oz, 8 oz, 12 oz) are designed for reuse.

How to clean:

1. Scoop out any remaining wax
2. Rinse with hot water
3. Remove the wick by using a spoon to pry out the wick holder from the bottom

The vessels work beautifully as containers for small items, plants, or as part of your ritual space.

▸ Are your candles safe for pets and children?

Our candles are made with plant-based coconut apricot wax and phthalate-free fragrance oils. However, always follow basic candle safety:

• Never leave burning candles unattended
• Keep out of reach of children and pets
• Place on heat-resistant surfaces away from flammable materials
• Keep away from drafts, vents, and ceiling fans
