Get the Most from Your Candle

Follow these guidelines for optimal fragrance and burn time.

First Burn Matters

Allow the wax to melt to the edges on your first burn to prevent tunneling.

Trim Your Wick

Keep the wick trimmed to 5mm for a clean burn and optimal scent throw.

Burn Duration

Burn for 2–4 hours at a time to maximise fragrance release.

Avoid Drafts

Place candles away from windows and fans for an even burn.
