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.

Burn it properly
  • 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.
Honest about scent

We sell fragrance for pleasure, not for treatment. Nothing here is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and no candle or diffuser purifies the air. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

If a scent gives you a headache or sets off asthma, that is a real reaction — stop using it and open a window.
