Smells Like Texas Heritage
There’s a new Calyan Wax Co. candle at DVTD and it’s inspired by our Texas roots! Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with livestock and everything to do with our state flower, the Texas bluebonnet.
The Texas Bluebonnet Soy Candle is here!
Featuring heavy floral notes of white rose and jasmine with a base of iris and mimosa, it smells like a Texas flower field in springtime with sweet floral notes of bluebonnet, rose, and jasmine.
A Little About the Lone Star State
Not from Texas? While Texas is home to cattle, cowboys, and country music, we’re not all deserts and cacti. In fact, a drive on interstate 45 in Ellis County could grace you with 35-40 acres of bluebonnets in the spring. Plus, a quick search of Google will land you results for even more smatterings of this vibrant blue flower. While the weather does influence the blooms, you’ll usually find them in late March through early May, with the peak usually being in April—that’s right now, ya’ll!

Sure, not everything is bigger and better in Texas, but when it comes to breathtaking landscapes, nothing beats the beauty of this vibrant wildflower. It’s also why you’ll find families gathered in the midst of fields (usually right off the highway) for the ultimate photo op.
And, if you can’t get to Texas this spring to see for yourself, you can enjoy the smell of Texas Bluebonnets in your home with this special limited-edition Texas Bluebonnet candle.

Texas Roots
If you had the opportunity to watch our interview with Calyon Wax Co. Founder, Jacob Johnson, then you’ve seen that just like DVTD, their Home Office is in North Texas. Haven’t seen it? It’s definitely worth checking out the video since you’ll learn more about how they give back, some of their new scents, and their safe-for-your home quality candles. In fact, they design, develop, and create every candle from scratch with an obsessive dedication to beauty, quality, and performance.
So what exactly goes into their candles?
We’re glad you asked. Calyan Wax Co. candles feature safe-for-your-home, minimal ingredients. Just how many make it minimal? Three! That’s right, there are only three ingredients in the candles.
- American-grown soy wax
- Essential oil infused fragrance (Yes, it’s phthalate-free.)
- Cotton wicks (No lead or metals. Seriously, just cotton.)
