Skeem Design Citronella Sea Salt Outdoor Votive Candle Set

Yes, they are formulated with natural citronella oil, which is a proven botanical repellent. While they provide a pleasant ambiance, the scent profile is specifically designed to help deter mosquitoes and other outdoor pests.

Unlike traditional citronella candles that can smell harsh or medicinal, this blend is quite sophisticated. It balances the citronella with notes of sea salt, jasmine, grapefruit, lemon, and lime for a fresh, clean, and citrus-forward scent.

While these are designed as outdoor candles, they are made with a clean-burning soy wax blend and can be used indoors. However, because they contain citronella, the scent may be stronger than a standard home fragrance candle.

Each votive in the set offers a burn time of approximately 50 hours. To maximize this, be sure to trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each use.

Yes, the silk-screened glass vessels are durable and aesthetically pleasing. Once the wax is fully consumed, you can clean out the remaining residue and repurpose the containers as small planters or storage jars.

The candles themselves do not have individual lids, but the entire set arrives in a distinctive tube package that includes a wood lid, which is perfect for keeping the candles protected when not in use.
