Outdoor Citronella Tin Candle — 19.4 oz Eucalyptus & Lemongrass

Product description

Natural composition and long life: This citronella candle is made from renewable, soy-based wax and a natural cotton-style wick, formulated to offer approximately 120 hours of burn time. One 19.4 oz tin candle is included per unit, giving you extended coverage for many outdoor uses.

Herbal fragrance blend: The wax is scented with a blend of five botanical oils — eucalyptus, peppermint, lemongrass, verbena rose and citronella — to create a fresh, citrusy and slightly herbal aroma that’s intended to be low-smoke and inviting. The combination is chosen for outdoor refreshment and a repellent effect against flying pests.

Container and portability: The candle is poured into a durable tin can with an adjustable metal carry handle. The container protects the candle during transport and makes storage straightforward; the compact, lightweight tin is suited to tabletop placement and easy to move from spot to spot.

Outdoor use and applications: Designed for patios, porches, backyard barbecues, camping trips and casual alfresco evenings, this candle is meant to sit on tables or the ground to create a cozy atmosphere while helping deter mosquitoes and other bugs. It’s intended for outdoor use only and works best in relatively sheltered areas.

Safety and brand notes: The formulation is marketed as friendly to people, pets and the environment, using renewable materials where possible. The maker, established in 2009, focuses on fragrance products and packaging designed for convenience and outdoor living.

  • Durable, portable tin with handle

Cons

  • Scent may be strong for some users
  • Occasional wick stability problems reported

VerdictA long-burning, herb-infused tin candle designed for outdoor use. It delivers extended burn time and a pleasant citrus-herbal aroma that helps keep insects away. The durable metal container and carry handle make it easy to move between patio, porch and campsite. A few users note wick issues or find the fragrance strong, but overall it’s effective and convenient for outdoor gatherings.

Reader reviews

  1. Jose 5/5

    Works as advertised

    Simple and effective—does what it should.

  2. R Bynum 3/5

    Wick instability issues

    This came with a single wide lamp-style wick that shifted as the wax melted. It floated down and went out unless I improvised supports and secured the clip. The big wick did give a stronger flame, but it required fiddling to keep it upright as levels dropped.

  3. austin t. 5/5

    Saved the night

    Did exactly what I needed. Once I forgot it, and the bugs found me—reminded me how well it works.

  4. Jeramie Bowen 5/5

    Huge flame for remote camping

    Great for remote campsites. Produces a large flame and the burn duration is impressively long.

  5. Sydney 5/5

    Big, long-lasting scent

    Large tin that smells nice and burns for a very long time. Definitely worth buying for long outdoor sessions.

  6. angela 5/5

    Attractive and functional

    Looks nice, smells good, and so far no bites. It performs as intended.

  7. BZ 3/5

    Burns unevenly on some units

    Nice scent and works well, but mine always burns more on one side. The wick curls and I have to trim to 1/4 inch and limit burns to under 4 hours. Maybe I got a bad batch.

  8. Lucie 5/5

    Aromatic but not overpowering

    The fragrance was noticeable and pleasant without being overwhelming.

  9. Thomas W 5/5

    Perfect for evenings on the patio

    We lit this at dusk in a buggy Midwest evening and it made a big difference—very few mosquitoes and the scent was pleasant. Ordering more.

  10. Liz 5/5

    Good performance in a gazebo

    Used in a 10×12 gazebo with curtains open intermittently. No stink bugs, mosquitoes or flies while lit. Burned for around six hours and only used about a third of the wax; plenty left for next season.

  11. B-RAD 4/5

    Effective but scent is strong

    Keeps insects away and burns steadily for hours—good value. I’d give five stars if the aroma weren’t too intense for my nose.

  12. soso57 3/5

    Disappointing smoke and mild scent

    Not much citronella aroma and the flame produced some black smoke outdoors. The tin is cute but the effect surprised me—slightly disappointed.
