A Guide to Candle Care for Longer-Lasting Fragrance

Trim Your Wicks. 
Trimming your candle wick before each burn is essential for a clean, even flame. A wick that is too long can cause flickering, soot, and uneven melting. Keep wicks around 5mm for optimal burning.

First Burn Matters.
The first burn sets the stage for the candle’s lifetime. Allow your candle to burn long enough to create a full melt pool — the wax should melt evenly across the surface. This prevents tunnelling and ensures your candle burns evenly in future uses.

Avoid Drafts.
Place your candle away from vents, fans, or open windows. Drafts can cause uneven burning, flickering, and even excessive soot. A stable environment helps your candle burn smoothly and retain its fragrance.

Burn Time Guidelines.
For safety and longevity, avoid burning your candle for more than 3–4 hours at a time. Regularly letting a candle cool between burns prevents overheating and preserves the fragrance oils.

Store Properly.
Keep candles in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Heat and sunlight can affect the wax and fragrance, reducing the overall quality. Using candle boxes or storing in cupboards ensures they stay fresh until you’re ready to burn them.

Clean and Enjoy.
If soot accumulates on the candle jar, gently wipe it away to keep your candle looking as beautiful as it smells. By following these simple steps, you can enjoy longer-lasting, more fragrant candles that make your home feel luxurious every day.
