Candle Care Guide

How To Get The Most From Your Candle

All of our candles are lovingly hand-poured to provide you with hours of fragrant pleasure. With proper care, you can enjoy a purer scent experience and maintain their quality for longer.

Burning your candle

• Always burn your candle in a well-ventilated space, away from draughts and direct airflow, which can cause uneven burning and sooting.
• For the first burn, allow the wax to melt fully to the edges — this prevents tunnelling and ensures an even burn throughout the candle's life.
• Never burn for more than four hours at a time, and stop burning when 10mm of wax remains at the base.

Caring for your wick

• Before each burn, trim the wick to 5mm using a wick trimmer. This prevents high flames, smoking, and sooting.
• After extinguishing, use a snuffer to put out the flame — never blow it out. Re-centre the wick while the wax is still warm.
• If the wick moves toward the vessel wall during burning, extinguish immediately and straighten to prevent the vessel from cracking.

Safety

• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Always place on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
