Local menswear shop Unionmade has just rolled out its newest collaboration, a covetable soy candle with iconic grooming brand Baxter of California. The woodsy item, dubbed the KML candle, was inspired by the smell of campfires and burning wood, and therefore uses a blend of cedar, sandlewood, guiacwood oil, and musk to create the hanging-in-the-sticks effect. The 6.5-ounce candle comes in a manly "Battle Ship Gray" hue, and is embellished with the words "Unionmade" in metallic gold across its front. Naturally, it also comes in a very handsome, round, craft-paper box, adding up to the perfect man-host gift.
Unionmade x Baxter of California KML Candle, $30, available at Unionmade, 493 Sanchez Street (at 18th Street); 415-861-3373.
