The scents of the 1776 collection candles are distinctively masculine, capturing the chivalrous spirit and elements of nature in early America. Relive the story of Caesar Rodney, who took an 18 hours , 70 miles ride through rain and thunder from Delaware to Philadelphia, so he could vote for Independence in boots and spurs on July 2, 1776. Rich and timeless aroma of old books, fine worn leather, reminiscent of men's riding gloves and horse saddle, balanced with cedar and dark musk.

Drafted by 33 year old Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28, 1776, the Declaration of Independence is the nation's most cherished symbol of liberty. It was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, and announced that the 13 American colonies, then at war with Great Britain, regarded themselves as independent states and no longer a part of the British Empire. Instead, they formed a union that would become a new nation: the United States of America.
