Odder Things Candle - The Taxidermist Study

The air in the back room of This That & the ODDer things is thick with history, sawdust, and the art of preservation. This is where the magic happens—where the wild is made eternal.

Our latest addition to the Shadow & Light Collection takes you behind the velvet curtain and into the workspace of a master.

🦅 The Taxidermist’s Study

The Scent of Stillness and Salt

There is a specific, quiet dignity in a room filled with glass eyes and weathered wood. The Taxidermist’s Study is a tribute to the craft of holding onto what nature tried to take back.

This isn't a "beachy" driftwood scent. This is the smell of ancient, sun-bleached timber pulled from the banks of the Huron—salty, dry, and deeply atmospheric. It’s grounded by a subtle, earthy musk that feels like old leather-bound books and the quiet focus of a midnight project. It’s a scent for the collector, the researcher, and the keeper of secrets.

Light this one when you want your space to feel like a sanctuary of curiosities.

The Specs:

• The Scent Profile: Weathered driftwood, sun-dried salt, and a whisper of aged parchment.

• The Aesthetic: Our signature matte black jar—a dark exterior for a bone-white wax soul.

• The Vibe: Academic, dusty, and profoundly peaceful. Like a museum after hours.

• Burn Time: 50+ hours. Plenty of time to finish your latest mounting.

• Perfect For: Surrounding your favorite oddities or giving your Ypsi home that "haunted library" feel.

Preserve the moment. Burn the memory.
