Burn time is the supplier’s figure. Our own guideline is 5–7 hours per ounce on a single wick.

Top notes arrive first and fade fastest. The base is what the room still smells like two hours later.

Candle care
Four habits that decide how long it lasts-
Trim the wick
About 5 mm before every burn. A long wick makes a tall flame, and a tall flame smokes the glass.
-
Let the first burn finish
Two to three hours, until the melted wax reaches the edge. Wax remembers its first pool — cut it short and it tunnels for good.
-
Stop at four hours
Longer and the glass gets hot and the scent flattens. Retire the candle when about 1 cm of wax is left.
-
Keep the jar
Hot soapy water lifts the last of the wax — soy softens at a much lower temperature than paraffin. Then it is a pot, a tumbler, a planter.
- Trim the wick to about 5 mm before every burn.
- First burn: let the pool reach the edge, roughly two to three hours.
- Never burn for more than four hours at a stretch, and stop at 1 cm of wax.
- Keep it in sight, on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, children and pets.
