Troubleshooting

Candle is not burning evenly (tunneling)

Ensure the wax melts to the edge of the container on the first burn. Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before subsequent burns. Avoid drafts.

Excessive smoke or flickering flame

Trim the wick to 1/4 inch. Ensure the candle is not placed in a drafty area. Remove any debris from the wax pool.

Weak fragrance throw

Ensure the wick is properly trimmed and the wax pool is established. The scent is designed to be subtle; allow the room to acclimate to the fragrance. Ensure the candle is not too far from the primary area of the room.

Soot marks on the container

Trim the wick regularly. Avoid drafts. Extinguish the flame properly and allow the wax to cool before moving.

  • Trimming the Wick: Before each use, trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch (6mm). This prevents excessive smoke and ensures a cleaner burn.
  • Extinguishing: Use a snuffer or gently dip the wick into the melted wax pool and straighten it to extinguish the flame. Do not blow out the flame.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the container with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning agents on the wax or container.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place with the lid on to protect the wax from dust and preserve the fragrance.
