FAQs

How long should I burn the candle?

It is recommended to burn the candle for 2 to 4 hours per session for optimal scent throw and even wax consumption.

Can I reuse the glass vessel?

Yes, once the candle is finished, you can remove any remaining wax and wick remnants to repurpose the glass for storage or decor.

Does this candle smell like an actual fire?

Yes, it is designed specifically to replicate the sophisticated, smoky aroma of wood burning in a hearth.

What should I do if the wick falls into the wax?

Use a pair of tweezers to gently fish the wick out while the wax is still soft, then straighten it before it hardens.

Is the fragrance constant?

The fragrance is potent and will fill a room quickly, remaining present even after the candle has been extinguished.

Troubleshooting

The candle is tunneling (wax is not melting to the edges).

Ensure you burn the candle for at least 2 hours during the first use, or until the entire top layer of wax is liquid.

The wick is producing excess smoke.

Extinguish the flame, allow the wax to cool, and trim the wick to 5mm before relighting.

Pros and Cons

  • Scent may be too intense for those sensitive to smoke notes
  • Requires regular wick maintenance to prevent tunneling
  • Premium price point reflecting luxury positioning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your candle lasts, trim the cotton wick to approximately 5mm before every use. This prevents large flames and minimizes carbon buildup or soot on the glass. When placing the candle, ensure it is on a heat-resistant, level surface away from flammable materials like curtains or books. Avoid burning the candle for more than 4 hours at a time, and ensure it is extinguished completely after use by using a candle snuffer or gently blowing it out to prevent hot wax splatters. Keep the wax pool free of debris or wick trimmings.
