A study of acceptance. The point of equilibrium. Gravity observes the weight we create by resisting what is, revealing how the burden settles when circumstance is no longer asked to become something else. Interpreted through cold sea, bitter leaf, and dark musk.

Scented coconut apricot candle. A study of acceptance interpreted through petitgrain, sea salt, plum, and dark musk.

▪ Profile: Marine, Mineral, Musk
▪ Key Notes: Petitgrain, Sea Salt, Plum, Dark Musk

Lexicon is a collection of named observations. Interpreted through scent, each Study gives language to what is often recognized, but rarely named. There is no prescribed order. Recognition rarely happens once.

Every Lexicon candle is hand-poured using a premium coconut apricot wax blend and fine fragrance oils selected for both performance and character.

Fragrance oils are free from phthalates, parabens, carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, and other ingredients commonly associated with California Proposition 65. Each candle is finished with a natural cotton wick and poured in reusable glass designed to be kept long after the final burn.

Each candle is hand-poured in small batches and carefully packed before shipping. Orders are typically processed within 2–3 business days. 

For details regarding shipping, returns, exchanges, and damaged items, please refer to our Shipping & Returns policy.

The Study

Weight settles only once resistance is released. What appears effortless is rarely weightless. Equilibrium is not the absence of burden, but the end of resisting it.

    Definitely aquatic, but not in a tropical or beachy way. It's deeper and almost cologne-like. I wasn't sure about it straight out of the box, but once I burned it I completely understood it.

    Really nice scent and probably one of the stronger ones I've tried from the collection. It's a little more masculine than my usual preference, so I wouldn't burn it every day, but I love it in the evening.

    Bought this for my husband and somehow it became my candle. It's fresh but also kind of masculine and ****. Definitely ordering again.

    Gravity is easily one of my favorites. It has that fresh ocean scent at first but there's something darker underneath it. My whole living room smells amazing.
