Product Information
Full details
The Diptyque Paris Vanille Classic Candle is designed for fragrance enthusiasts seeking a sophisticated, comforting atmosphere in their home. Its primary benefit is a complex, rich scent profile that avoids the cloying sweetness of mass-market vanilla, offering instead a nuanced, woody, and smoky depth derived from high-quality ingredients. While the candle provides an exceptional olfactory experience, it requires diligent wick maintenance to ensure an even burn and to prevent soot buildup, making it better suited for users who appreciate the ritual of candle care.

FAQs
How long should I burn the candle for each session?
We recommend burning for at least 2 hours, but no more than 4 hours at a time to maintain the structural integrity of the wax.
Is the candle vessel reusable?
Yes, once the wax is gone, the glass vessel can be cleaned with warm soapy water and repurposed as a decorative container or makeup brush holder.
How do I clean wax residue from the glass?
Place the glass in the freezer for a few hours to harden remaining wax, then gently pop it out with a butter knife and wash the glass.
Can I leave the candle burning while I sleep?
No, never leave a burning candle unattended or in a room where you are sleeping.
What is the weight of the candle?
The Classic Candle contains 190 grams of wax.
Does the scent change over time?
The top notes will be most prominent when first lit, while the deeper woody and smoky base notes become more apparent as the candle burns down.
Troubleshooting
The candle is tunneling (wax is not melting to the edges).
Ensure the candle burns for at least 2 hours on the initial light so the entire top layer of wax liquifies.
Excessive smoke or black soot.
The wick is likely too long. Extinguish the candle, let it cool, and trim the wick to 5mm before relighting.
The flame is too small or drowning in wax.
Gently pour out a small amount of liquid wax or use a paper towel to absorb excess if the wick has become too short or overwhelmed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life and safety of your Diptyque candle, always place it on a heat-resistant, level surface away from drafts. Before lighting, trim the cotton wick to approximately 5mm; this is the most critical step to prevent smoke and uneven burning. If the flame flickers excessively, extinguish the candle, let it cool completely, and trim the wick further before relighting. Keep the wax pool free of debris, such as match heads or wick trimmings, to prevent fire hazards and scent contamination. When extinguishing, use a dedicated candle snuffer to avoid blowing wax splatter.
