You know the feeling — somewhere in the middle of the day, you realize you haven't taken a real breath in hours. This is the invitation to take one. Bright bergamot, cool green moss, and warm sandalwood — soft, still, unhurried. A five-minute reset that your whole body says yes to. Hand-poured in Lake Placid, NY with non-toxic soy wax.
The Scent
Bergamot opens with a citrusy lift — bright and light, the kind that doesn't demand anything of you. Green moss adds cool, earthy depth, like a forest floor after rain. Sandalwood brings everything to stillness — warm, meditative, the definition of calm.
The Feeling
Made for exactly this: the bath after a long shift. The ten minutes of quiet before dinner. The moment that reminds you that you matter too. A deeply meaningful gift for a teacher, nurse, or anyone who needs permission to rest — and most of us need that more than we admit.
Burn Tips
Allow the wax to pool fully to the edges on the first burn — this prevents tunneling and unlocks the full depth of the scent. Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each use.
Pine Needle - Cinnamon - Cedarwood - Peach - Lily
The feeling of slowing down — an evening on the dock, nowhere else to be. Made with cedarwood, pine needle, and cinnamon — essential oils known for their calming, grounding qualities.

I purchased two Pure Placid "Moment of Zen" soy candles primarily to support Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month research. While the charitable angle was my main reason for buying, the product itself turned out to be a genuine highlight.
The scent is a beautiful balance. The bergamot, green moss, and sandalwood blend nicely together, creating a peaceful, centering atmosphere that leaves me feeling relaxed, soothed, and focused from the inside out. The soy wax burns cleanly, which is a plus, and the overall vibe is exactly what the name suggests—a brief, necessary reset in the middle of a busy day.
Knowing that the proceeds go directly to the MS Society and the Tisch MS Research Center adds a layer of satisfaction to using it. It's my way to contribute to a cause that affects so many.
I love all the Pure Placid candles and scents. The Zen candle is perfect for my reading nook! The dry oil is not heavy and does not irritate my very sensitive skin. Total winners!
Love these candles and their sentiment. I usually give them for gifts. This year I treated myself for Thanksgiving! It minimizes cooking odors.***
Love this scent
I am a repeat Zen purchaser, each time it’s offered. I bought on Moment of Zen for me and one for a friend. I am moving into a new home and it’s overwhelming. My friend recently lost a child due to a botched surgery. Who needs a few moments of Zen more? The write up reminded me of the therapeutic effects of stopping to breathe and the calming effect of fragrance. Thank you, Marcy!
Great way to spruce the house up for spring. Our house smells great.
Clean scent that is somehow so relaxing. Love how this lotion feels-light, but does the job!
I purchased 3 different fragranced products last week-end for myself and as gifts. I love the scents, and know they are high quality and will be well received by my reciepents!
