"Underdog Rising" (Derby Day - Louisville):
Notes of bourbon, fresh mint & vanilla.
Scent Profile: Sweet // Hopeful
Scent Strength: Soft & Subtle
Louisville, the heart of American horse racing, celebrates champions of all kinds. This candle honors the spirit of legendary underdogs like Seabiscuit—horses who proved that heart and determination matter more than pedigree. The bourbon and mint capture Derby Day's timeless ritual of celebrating victory against all odds.
Each Underdog Rising candle is available in your choice of vessel: vintage glass Glow Jars for home elegance or rugged Infinity Tins for adventure and travel. Both feature the same premium, custom coconut, soybean, and apricot waxes.
Both classic 8 oz vessels hold vintage and timeless appeal--handcrafted just for you. Insatiably curious, we search the country for high-quality fragrance and essential oils to blend for your cozy pleasure and peace of mind. Our scents are crafted to whisper rather than shout—present but never overpowering, designed for those who appreciate nuanced fragrance that unfolds over time. Up to 60 hours burn time expected, dependent upon use. Made with clean-burning, cotton wicks. No phthalates! No parabens! No "bad" stuff.
a history of underdogs
and ne'er-do-wells
coming from behind
against all odds
on our way
to the last round
palms outstretched
reach for distant horizons and
scoop at amber waves
hoping to bend light
that turns wheat into
dreams
