Troubleshooting

Candle is smoking excessively

Trim the wicks to 1/4 inch (0.6 cm). Ensure the candle is not in a drafty area.

Uneven burn or tunneling

Ensure the first burn melted the wax to the edges. For subsequent burns, ensure all wicks are lit and trim them evenly.

Wicks are difficult to light

Trim the wicks slightly shorter if they appear too long or bent. Ensure the wick is centered.

Fragrance is too strong

Ensure the room is adequately ventilated. Consider moving the candle to a slightly less central location or using it for shorter periods.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers a powerful and consistent fragrance to large rooms or outdoor areas.
  • The five-wick system promotes an even burn and melt pool.
  • The handmade earthenware pot is a decorative and artisanal piece.
  • Offers a long burn time, providing extended enjoyment.
  • Features a classic and widely loved Diptyque fragrance profile.

Cons

  • The large size requires significant space for placement and optimal diffusion.
  • The burn time, while long, requires careful management of the wicks.
  • The artisanal pot, while beautiful, may be susceptible to damage if not handled with care.
  • Higher price point due to size, materials, and brand.
  • Five wicks may require more initial trimming than a single wick.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts and flammable materials.
  2. Ensure adequate ventilation around the candle.

Care:

  • First Burn: Allow the wax to melt evenly to the edges of the pot on the first use to prevent tunneling. This may take several hours.
  • Wick Trimming: Before each use, trim the wicks to approximately 1/4 inch (0.6 cm). This prevents excessive smoking and ensures a clean burn.
  • Extinguishing: Use a snuffer to extinguish the flame to prevent wax splatter. Do not blow out the flame.
  • Cleaning the Pot: Once the candle is finished, the earthenware pot can be cleaned and repurposed.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
