Winter is a season of reflection, warmth, and quiet strength — and nothing grounds the soul like the familiar embrace of cinnamon and vanilla. December’s Scent of the Month, Winter Ember, is crafted for the man who values ritual: the slow pour of morning coffee, the crackle of a fireplace, the calm that settles in when the world outside grows still.

Cinnamon brings the boldness — a warm spice that awakens memory. Vanilla brings the softness — a creamy sweetness that rounds out the edges. Together, they create a scent that feels timeless, confident, and exceptionally inviting.

Light this candle after a long week. Let the air fill with nostalgic holiday warmth and that refined, masculine touch that defines every creation at Refined Man of Candles. Winter Ember isn’t just a fragrance; it’s a seasonal ritual — one that transforms any room into a sanctuary of comfort and quiet power.

Vibe & Story

This blend captures the feeling of sitting by a winter window, watching snow drift under streetlights, while the scent of fresh vanilla and cinnamon lingers from the kitchen. It’s smooth, confident, warm, and deeply grounding — perfect for the colder months when home becomes your haven.

Behind the Pour

Every December batch of Cinnamon and Vanilla is poured with intention. Inspired by the duality of the season — cold air outside, warmth within — this candle balances spice and sweetness in a way that feels luxurious yet familiar. Cinnamon oil is steeped into warm soy wax first, giving it time to bloom. Vanilla is blended slowly afterward to maintain its creamy richness.

The result? A soft-spiced aroma with a refined masculine edge, hand-crafted for those who want December to feel like a moment of peace, not chaos.
