Two weeks' notice does not feel like two weeks when you are the one staying. This is the reaction, printed on a white label: "How Dare You Leave Me With These People, Infused With Shock, Betrayal And A Little Bit Of I'm Going To Miss You."

The Signature White version, poured with 60+ hours of Golden Patchouli. Desk neighbours, the work friend who kept you sane, a resignation nobody wanted: this is the one.

Why You'll Love It

  • "How Dare You Leave Me With These People" — quoted in full on the Signature White label
  • White printed label on clear glass, which suits a bright kitchen or a pale shelf
  • Natural soy wax with a cotton wick — an even burn and no petroleum wax
  • Phthalate free and non-toxic — vegan, cruelty free and non-GMO
  • Golden Patchouli — warm, citrus-lifted, and not remotely floral
  • 60+ hours from a 13.5 oz jar, which sees out the whole notice period
  • Hand poured in small batches in Minnetonka, Minnesota — made in the USA

Perfect Gift For

The desk neighbour, a work bestie handing in notice, an internal transfer, a promotion that moves them away, a leaving do, a last-day breakfast, and the one person who knew where everything was kept.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a funny gift for a coworker who is leaving?
A: The best leaving gifts admit that the person staying is the one being punished, which is funnier than wishing someone luck. Mock outrage is the register that works.

Q: Is it rude to joke about somebody quitting?
A: Joking about the gap they leave is a compliment wearing a complaint, and everyone in the room hears it that way. It only goes wrong if the joke is about why they left.

Q: Can I keep a lit candle on my desk at work?
A: Plenty of offices ban open flames, so check before lighting anything at a desk. Unlit, a soy jar still scents a small space, which is how most people use one at work.

Q: Is soy wax better than paraffin for a scented candle?
A: Soy holds fragrance at a lower temperature, so the scent comes through without the sharpness paraffin adds. It also burns more slowly, which is where the 60+ hours comes from.

Q: What is the white label made of?
A: It is a printed white face applied to clear glass, so the jar reads as white on a shelf rather than showing the wax. The kraft version uses natural brown paper.

Q: Will the scent fade if it sits unlit for months?
A: Soy holds its fragrance cold for a long time, and a jar kept out of sunlight still throws properly a year later. Warmth degrades it, not time.
