Poseidon Scented Candle

Ships in 3–6 business days · Gift-ready packaging

Poseidon ruled the sea, the storms, and the deep places the ancient world could not name. He was unpredictable — a god who could calm the waters or shatter a fleet with equal ease. His domain was not just the ocean but the boundary between the known and the unknown, the surface and what lies beneath.

The Poseidon Scented Candle is hand-poured from 100% natural soy wax and individually hand-finished at our Orlando studio. The fragrance is built for depth: bergamot, black pepper, and lemon open the burn; cinnamon and clove develop in the middle; black amber and cedarwood anchor the dry-down. Bold from the first light, complex from the first hour.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Poseidon Candle smell like?

The Poseidon Scented Candle opens with bergamot, black pepper, and lemon, develops through cinnamon and clove, and finishes on a deep base of black amber and cedarwood. The result is bold, warm, and complex — spiced, resinous, and built for depth.

Is the Poseidon Candle part of a Greek mythology series?

Yes. The Poseidon Candle is part of Votive Candle Co.’s Greek mythology sculptural series, which includes Apollo, Hermes, Zeus, Artemis, and other figures from classical antiquity. Each candle is hand-poured to order in our Orlando studio.

Is this candle safe to burn?

Yes. Made from 100% natural soy wax with a lead-free cotton wick and phthalate-free fragrance oils — non-toxic and clean-burning. Follow the candle care instructions above for the best experience.

Can I display it without burning it?

Absolutely. Many customers display the Poseidon Candle as a sculptural piece and never burn it. The detail holds up beautifully as a standalone decorative object.

What makes soy wax better for scented candles?

Soy wax burns cooler and more slowly than paraffin, which gives the fragrance oils more time to diffuse evenly through the room. It’s also derived from a renewable crop and produces significantly less soot. Every Votive candle is made with 100% natural soy wax.

How long does it take to ship?

Orders ship in 3–6 business days in gift-ready packaging. Each Poseidon Candle is made to order at our Orlando, FL studio.
