Troubleshooting

Candle tunnels (wax only melts in the center)

Ensure the candle burns long enough on the first use for the wax pool to reach the edges of the glass. Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before subsequent burns.

Wick is smoking excessively

Trim the wick to 1/4 inch. Ensure there are no drafts affecting the flame.

Scent seems weak

Ensure the wick is trimmed properly and the room is not excessively large or drafty. Allow the candle to burn for at least 30 minutes to fully release the scent.

Uneven burn

Center the wick if it has shifted. Ensure the candle is placed on a level surface and is not exposed to drafts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts and flammable materials.
  2. Ensure the wick is centered before lighting.

Compatibility:

This is a home fragrance product and is not compatible with electronic devices.

Care:

  • First Burn: Allow the wax to melt evenly to the edge of the container on the first use to prevent tunneling.
  • Wick Trimming: Before each use, trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch (6mm). This helps ensure a clean, even burn and prevents excessive smoke.
  • Extinguishing: Use a snuffer or gently dip the wick into the melted wax pool to extinguish the flame. Avoid blowing out the candle.
  • Cleaning: Once cooled, wipe the exterior of the glass vessel with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fragrance.
