Fresh Cut Grass, 4 oz Spring Tin
Tins are forgiving and ship well. Fresh Cut Grass has a high flashpoint so you can pour warm and still keep the green notes intact.
Ingredients
- 100 g(100 g × 1)Golden Brands 464 Soy
- WickECO 10
- 1×4 oz Seamless Travel Tin
- 9.0%(9 g)Fresh Cut Grass (Fragrance Oil)
- Pour58°C
Burn notes
Approx. 22 hours per 4 oz tin. Top notes peak in the first hour, deeper grass settles after.
Compatibility notes
- 4 oz Seamless Travel Tin conducts heat — surface can exceed 60 °C. Always burn on a trivet or coaster. Never hold the vessel while lit. Warn customers on the burn-instruction label.
Method
- 01
Weigh the wax into a pouring pitcher to the gram. Accuracy here decides everything downstream.
- 02
Heat the wax in a double boiler to 80°C, stirring gently until fully clear. Do not exceed 85°C.
- 03
Take the pitcher off the heat. Let the wax cool to 63°C, then stir in fragrance and dye, if used, for a full two minutes.
- 04
Continue cooling, stirring occasionally, until the wax reaches 58°C.
- 05
Pre-warm the vessels in a 50°C oven for ten minutes. Centre the wick, fix it with a wick bar.
- 06
Pour in a single steady stream into one side of the vessel until full. Do not move the vessels for at least four hours.
- 07
Cure undisturbed at room temperature for 10 days before the first burn. The scent throw climbs the entire time.
- 08
Trim the wick to 5 mm before lighting. Burn the first time for two hours minimum to set the memory ring.

If you can't find Golden Brands 464 Soy
- Same family (soy)Golden Brands 444 Soy
Higher melt point than 464, better hot throw in wider vessels.

Cold-pour soy. Pour around 38°C to reduce sinkholes; tight discipline required.
- Same family (soy)Golden Brands 494 (Wax Melt)
Wickless tart formula. Higher FO load since burn safety isn't a factor.
