Boulevardier Candle | Barrel of Blues Benefit for Child Protect

from $36.00

Sophisticated. Bold. Timeless. Now in its fourth year, the Boulevardier candle has become a Barrel of Blues tradition—one guests return for year after year.

Named for the classic bourbon cocktail, Boulevardier evokes effortless refinement. Created for Child Protect’s Barrel of Blues event, this custom scent is rich and layered—opening with Italian bergamot and orange, deepening into bourbon and scotch whisky, and finishing with tobacco, cedarwood, musk, and sweet vanilla.

Poured into a matte black glass vessel with a raised black logo, the design is sleek, modern, and understated.

Available in one-wick (9 oz) and two-wick (17 oz) sizes. Each candle is hand-poured in Montgomery, Alabama, using 100% soy wax for a clean, even burn.

Ship or pick up at Melissa Warnke Candles (1620 Graham Street, Montgomery, AL) or at the Barrel of Blues event on April 16.

Proceeds from the sale of this candle go directly to Child Protect, a children's advocacy center in Montgomery, Alabama, which was established to assist the Department of Human Resources and Law Enforcement in their investigation of child sexual abuse and physical abuse.

Burn Instructions: On the first burn, allow the pool of wax to extend to the outside rim of the jar to set its memory. Each time you burn the candle again, it will continue to burn to the rim. Keep wicks trimmed to 1/4" and directed away from the sides of the container. Burn candles on a protective, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts.

WARNING: Candles should not be burned for more than 3 hours at a time. Burning a candle for long periods of time when the wax is very low could cause the glass container to explode. Burn within sight. Keep away from flammable objects. Keep away from children and pets.
