Product Information

Full details

The Diptyque Figuier Classic Candle is designed for homeowners and fragrance enthusiasts who appreciate sophisticated, nature-inspired scents that evoke the warmth of a Mediterranean orchard. Its key benefit is the complex, true-to-life aroma that balances green, woody fig leaves with the creamy sweetness of the fruit, providing an elevated atmosphere for any living space. One caveat to consider is that as a high-end luxury candle, it requires diligent wick maintenance to ensure an even burn and to prevent soot buildup.

FAQs

How long will the Diptyque Figuier Classic Candle last?

With proper care and regular wick trimming, the classic candle typically provides approximately 60 hours of burn time.

Can I repurpose the glass jar once the wax is gone?

Yes, once cleaned, the Diptyque glass vessel makes an excellent decorative container for makeup brushes, pens, or small trinkets.

What are the primary fragrance notes in Figuier?

The fragrance centers around fig leaves and the fig fruit, creating a balance between woody, green, and creamy notes.

Is this candle suitable for a large open-plan space?

While it has a moderate to strong throw, it is best suited for small to medium-sized rooms to fully appreciate the complexity of the scent.

Does the scent change as the candle burns?

The scent remains relatively consistent, though you may notice the green leaf notes more upon initial lighting, with the fruit notes becoming more apparent as the wax pool warms.

How should I store the candle when not in use?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fragrance oils and prevent the wax from discoloring.

Troubleshooting

The candle is 'tunneling' or not burning to the edge

Ensure the first burn lasts until the entire top surface is liquid wax. If it already tunnels, you can use a foil wrap trick to help reflect heat back to the edges during the next burn.

The wick is producing excessive smoke or soot

Your wick is likely too long. Extinguish the candle, let the wax cool completely, trim the wick to 1/4 inch, and relight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Diptyque Figuier Classic Candle remains in top condition, follow these simple maintenance steps:

  1. Wick Trimming: Always trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting. This prevents the flame from becoming too large and avoids unnecessary soot.
  2. Burn Duration: Do not burn the candle for more than three to four hours at a time to prevent the glass from overheating.
  3. Placement: Place the candle on a heat-resistant, flat surface away from drafts, open windows, or ceiling fans to ensure an even, steady flame.
  4. Extinguishing: Use a proper candle snuffer to extinguish the flame rather than blowing it out, which helps prevent wax splatter and smoke.
