How It Performs
Burn time varies with the candle size and how it is cared for. The 100 g single wick candle typically burns between 15 and 20 hours, making it ideal for shorter uses or smaller spaces. The 315 g double wick option offers approximately 35 to 45 hours of burn time, while the generous 550 g triple wick candle provides 60 to 75 hours of ambient fragrance.
For optimal performance, trim the wick to about 5 millimetres before each use and avoid exposing the flame to drafts. This helps the candle burn evenly and enhances the scent throw throughout your home.

How To Use Your Candle
Always place your candle on a heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects. Before lighting, trim each wick to about 5 millimetres to ensure a clean, steady flame. Allow the wax to melt evenly across the surface during the first burn to prevent tunnelling. Avoid burning the candle for longer than three to four hours at a time, and extinguish gently. Let the wax cool completely before relighting.

This candle is intended for external use only and should never be applied to skin. Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
