Wildberry Merlot Soy Candle | Clean Fragrance Farmhouse Candle

Midwinter Mead Soy Candle

Step into the warmth of an old-world gathering with Midwinter Mead, a hand-poured soy candle inspired by dark winter fruits, golden honey, glowing hearths, and candlelit evenings shared around a rustic table. This rich, layered fragrance blends ripe plum, cherry, strawberry, blueberry, apple, and raspberry with warm honey, cinnamon, vanilla, and cedarwood, then settles into a deep base of bourbon, smoked oak, and caramel.

Midwinter Mead is perfect for anyone who loves a berry candle, fall candle, winter candle, plum candle, cherry candle, bourbon candle, dark fruit fragrance, or warm woodsy home scent. Rather than smelling like a bright or sugary fruit candle, Midwinter Mead has a darker, more sophisticated character. Juicy orchard fruits and wild berries are balanced by honeyed warmth, soft spice, smoky oak, and rich caramel for a fragrance that feels cozy, mysterious, and slightly old-fashioned.

The fragrance opens with ripe plum, orange, cherry, strawberry, blueberry, apple, and raspberry before unfolding into soft violet, golden honey, and warm cinnamon. Cedarwood and vanilla add smooth woody depth, while bourbon, smoke, oak, and caramel create a mellow finish reminiscent of a warm drink enjoyed beside the fire on a cold evening.

Hand-poured with premium soy wax, Midwinter Mead is made for chilly autumn evenings, holiday gatherings, Thanksgiving dinners, winter nights by the fireplace, reading by candlelight, and any time you want your home to feel warm, inviting, and just a little bit enchanted.

Previously known as Midwinter Mead: This fragrance has a new name and updated packaging, but the scent you know and love has not changed. If you select one of our remaining candles in the previous tin packaging, it will arrive with the Midwinter Mead label. These tins contain the same rich, fruity, warm fragrance as the newly named candle and are available only while remaining inventory lasts.

Light the Candle. Set the Scene.

Midwinter Mead now has its own coordinating Candle Ambiance, created to bring the fragrance story to life beyond the candle itself. Light your Midwinter Mead candle, pull up the matching ambiance, and settle into a warm, atmospheric scene filled with flickering candlelight and the cozy feeling of an old-world gathering on a cold evening.

Our Candle Ambiances are designed to pair with the scents that inspired them, creating a full sensory experience while you relax, read, work, gather with family, entertain guests, or simply enjoy a quiet evening at home.

Which Candle Size Should I Buy?

Mini Candle — 3.5 oz
Best for small spaces like bathrooms, desks, small bedrooms, entryways, or bedside tables. Great for sampling Midwinter Mead before committing to a larger size.

Signature Candle — 5.5 oz
Best for bedrooms, kitchens, home offices, and medium-size rooms. This is a great everyday candle size for adding the rich aroma of dark fruit, honey, warm woods, and bourbon without overwhelming the space.

Luxe Candle — 7.5 oz
Best for living rooms, larger bedrooms, dining areas, and gathering spaces. Choose this size when you want a stronger scent presence or a longer-lasting candle experience.

3-Wick Candle — 18 oz
Best for larger living rooms, open-concept spaces, kitchens, great rooms, and areas where you want Midwinter Mead to create a deeper, more immersive atmosphere. With three wicks creating a wider melt pool, this is our best choice when you want more candlelight, a stronger scent presence, and a warm, inviting focal point for larger spaces.

For especially large or open-concept homes, candle fragrance will be most noticeable near the area where the candle is burning rather than throughout the entire space.

Candle Care

For the best burn, trim your wick to 1/4 inch before each use. On the first burn, allow the wax to melt fully across the top of the candle to help prevent tunneling. Burn on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, children, pets, curtains, and anything flammable. Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Stop use when about 1/2 inch of wax remains at the bottom of the jar.
