Product Information

Full details

The Diptyque Benjoin Classic Candle is designed for individuals who appreciate sophisticated, resinous home fragrances that offer both depth and warmth. Its primary benefit is the creation of an enveloping, smooth atmosphere through its rich, balsamic notes derived from ancient oriental traditions. However, users should be aware that because it features a potent, woody resin profile, it may be too intense for small, unventilated rooms.

FAQs

How long can I burn the candle at once?

It is recommended to burn the candle for 2 to 3 hours at a time to ensure an even melt pool.

What are the primary notes of this candle?

The primary notes are resinous, warm, and balsamic, derived from the benzoin tree sap.

Is the glass container reusable?

Yes, once the wax is fully consumed, the glass vessel can be cleaned and repurposed as a decorative container.

How do I prevent soot on the glass?

Always trim your wick to 5mm before lighting and ensure the candle is not placed in a drafty area.

Where is the best place to use this candle?

It performs best in medium-sized living spaces like a living room or office to allow the rich resinous scent to disperse properly.

Troubleshooting

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

Allow the candle to burn for a longer period during the next use so the entire top layer becomes liquid.

The wick is creating smoke

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

The flame is flickering excessively

Move the candle to an area free from drafts, such as open windows or fans.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, place the candle on a heat-resistant, level surface away from drafts that might cause uneven burning. To maintain the life of the candle, always extinguish it by gently dipping the wick into the liquid wax pool and straightening it immediately after, which prevents smoke and smoldering. Ensure the candle remains out of reach of children and pets. Keep the wax free of debris, such as burnt wick trimmings or matches, as these can interfere with the burn quality and potentially cause flare-ups.
