Use & Care

The scented candle does not need to burn for hours to develop its full fragrance. However, it does need a little time at the very beginning, as the melted wax is the part that smells. The perfume has now reached its optimal distribution potential.

It is also important that the top layer of wax is completely liquid before it is extinguished when used for the first time. This so-called burn plate should be completely liquid to prevent craters from forming.

Be moderate when lighting candles - the fewer candles burning in a room, the less the air will be polluted.

Proper handling of the wick prevents sooting and increases the longevity of the candle significantly - very significantly. Therefore, it is best not to blow out the candle, but rather "smother" it and dip it briefly in the liquid wax.

The “cauliflower-like” ends, also called roses, reduce the size of the flame, soot more quickly and unwanted craters form in the middle. If they are in a draft and the flame “dances”, the candle also burns worse and faster.

Even more important here is regular trimming of the wick. Try to keep it at around 5mm. This is especially important if the candle burns deeper in the container. The reduced air supply creates the rose effect due to a lack of oxygen.

As strange as it may sound, the distance between two candles that are burning at the same time should definitely be increased. This is because fire needs oxygen and two candles will compete with each other for air.

The space above a candle must be free - under no circumstances should candles be burned on a shelf!

Lit candles must always be supervised, especially when small children are in the room.
