FAQs

How long will the 190g Baies candle burn?

When maintained properly with regular wick trimming and avoided drafts, the 190g candle provides approximately 60 hours of burn time.

Can I reuse the glass jar once the candle is finished?

Yes, once the wax is completely gone, you can carefully remove the remaining residue with hot water and soap to repurpose the glass vessel as a decorative item or storage container.

Is the Baies scent considered floral or fruity?

It is a hybrid of both. It features the fruity, tangy notes of blackcurrant berries balanced by the elegant, soft scent of roses.

Should I keep the candle in direct sunlight?

It is best to store your candle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can cause the wax to discolor and the fragrance oils to degrade over time.

What is the best way to extinguish the candle?

Using a metal candle snuffer is the safest method to extinguish the flame without blowing hot wax or creating smoke.

Troubleshooting

The candle is 'tunneling' (wax is only melting in the center).

Ensure the first burn lasts long enough for the entire surface to liquefy (usually 2-3 hours). If tunneling persists, use a foil ring around the top edge to help reflect heat back to the edges.

The candle is producing soot or black smoke.

The wick is likely too long. Extinguish the candle, let it cool completely, trim the wick to 1/4 inch, and remove any debris from the wax pool.

The scent throw is weak.

Ensure you are using the candle in an appropriately sized room and that it is not placed directly under an air conditioning vent or near a strong draft.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, complex scent profile that isn't overpowering
  • High-quality wax ensures clean, even burning
  • Stylish, reusable glass vessel
  • Excellent scent throw that covers medium-sized rooms effectively

Cons

  • Premium price point compared to standard home candles
  • Requires consistent wick trimming to prevent soot
  • Glass vessel can become very hot during extended use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your Baies candle, always trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch before every lighting; this prevents the flame from becoming too large and creating excess smoke. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, which can cause uneven burning or soot accumulation. When extinguishing, it is recommended to use a candle snuffer to avoid splashing hot wax or releasing smoke into the air. Keep the wax pool free of debris, such as burnt wick trimmings or matches, as these can interfere with the burn quality.
