PERFUME CANDLE MASTERY: TIPS FOR OPTIMAL BURNING

To fully enjoy our perfume candles, we recommend the following steps:

Balanced burning: Make sure the candle melts completely to the edge of the candle holder. We recommend letting the large candles burn for at least one and a half to two hours to prevent the candle from 'tunnelling'. Tunneling can occur when there is a buildup of candle wax around the sides of the holder. 

Trim the wick: Trim the wick to about ¼ inch (about 0.6 cm and up to 1 cm) to avoid black bubbles at the top of the wick, which can sometimes cause smoking or sooty wicks. A wick trimmer is ideal, but nail clippers or even eyebrow scissors can be just as effective. 

Limit the burning time (just a suggestion): We recommend burning the candle for a maximum of 4 hours at a time. This extends the life of the candle and ensures optimal fragrance distribution. This is just a suggestion; you can let the candle burn longer if you wish.
