"I WANTED CANDLES THAT SMELLED LIKE REAL PLACES — NOT COLOGNE OR PERFUME."
"Hi, I'm Mark. After years working as an electrician, custom hardscaping pro, and serving in the US Army, with one deployment to Iraq, I wanted to create candles that didn't smell like cologne or perfume."
"I wanted them to smell like real places... a garage during an oil change, a quiet tack shop, a steakhouse on a Saturday night, or yesterday's campfire."
Every candle is hand crafted right here in Florida using natural soy wax and carefully tested until it captures the atmosphere it's meant to recreate.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope one of these places feels like home.
INSIDE THE WORKSHOP
Long before the wax is poured, every candle starts as a place, a memory, or a moment worth recreating.
1. Weighing Every Fragrance
Every fragrance oil is measured by hand to ensure each batch remains consistent from the first candle to the last.
2. Testing Until It's Right
Every new atmosphere goes through multiple burn tests to find the right wick, melt pool size, flame height, and scent throw before it's offered.
3. Small Batch Pouring
Each candle is hand crafted using natural soy wax and allowed to cure slowly before it's ready to recreate the atmosphere it was designed to capture.
4. Final Inspection
Before a candle leaves the workshop, every jar is inspected, cleaned, labeled, and prepared for its new home.
FINALLY. A CANDLE HE'LL ACTUALLY WANT TO LIGHT.
Stop buying generic cologne gift baskets or floral candles he'll hide in a drawer. Wicked Man Candle Co. is the perfect gift for fathers, husbands, outdoorsmen, mechanics, veterans, and hard-to-buy-for guys.
