Candle Care & Proper Usage
About the candle making process
Each of our candles is created with special care, ensuring a balance between the perfume concentrate, wax pour and wick type, all to create the optimal burning experience. Making the candles takes up to two weeks and involves eight processes, all of which are done exclusively by hand.
Candle use
When using the candle for the first time, leave it to burn for 2 or 3 hours, until all the wax has become liquid on the surface. This will prevent the wax from becoming hollow later on or forming a well around the wick.
Never leave a lit candle unattended and never let it burn for more than four hours at a time. Do not move your candle when lit or when the wax is still liquid.
Never place a lit candle in a draught, nor in direct contact with a precious surface. It should be placed on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
To extinguish the candle, it is recommended you use a snuffer to avoid smoke and any splashing of liquid wax.
Keep the candle out of reach of children and pets.
Wick care
Be sure to centre the wick in the wax after each use for consistent burning of the wax. This will also ensure the glass does not overheat. The wick and flame should not touch the container.
Finally, regularly cut the wick with a wick trimmer or scissors (ideal length 3-5 mm) to prevent the candle from emitting smoke and the wick falling into the wax, rendering the candle unusable.
Recycling your candle
This is when the second life of the candle begins! The glass containers can be kept and used as you see fit, as bud vases, brush or pencil pots, tealight holders, etc.
