XXL citronella concrete candle “Big Grey – Mugge Schreck” – handmade, 3 wooden wicks, approx. 1.5 kg, up to 80h burn time

Summer evenings on the terrace, balcony or in the garden are wonderful -

If it weren't for those pesky mosquitoes, that's exactly where our outdoor concrete candle from DochtFreunde comes in: It combines modern design, natural insect repellent, and passionate craftsmanship. Each citronella concrete candle is lovingly cast in the Southern Black Forest, individually decorated, and filled with sustainable soy wax. An exclusive, unique piece that not only keeps insects away but also creates atmosphere.

Natural insect repellent with style

The citronella candle emits a pleasantly fresh scent known to repel mosquitoes . Please note: The effectiveness depends on factors such as wind, weather, and location; complete protection is not guaranteed. Nevertheless, citronella provides a natural fragrance that insects often avoid. Combined with the three wooden wicks, it creates a consistent flame that crackles gently, making your outdoor moments even more cozy.

Decorated with dried flowers, each candle becomes an eye-catcher. The elegant look is a perfect fit for modern outdoor spaces, for example, as a highlight next to stylish scented candles from our shop.

A unique piece from the Southern Black Forest

DochtFreunde – Susanne and Stephan, the founders, craft each candle by hand. Their passion for nature and candles is evident in every detail.

The robust concrete container is carefully sealed, is weatherproof (except in frost/rain), and can be used for many summers. Weighing approximately 1.5 kg, it not only brings stability but also a true outdoor feel to any table.
