FAQ
What type of wax do these candles use?+
These dining room scented candles are typically crafted with a paraffin wax blend, known for its excellent fragrance throw and ability to hold a high concentration of essential oils. This ensures a consistent and long-lasting scent release.
How long will the scent last?+
The burn time of these candles varies depending on factors like wick size and room temperature, but you can generally expect 25-40 hours of fragrance enjoyment with each candle. Allowing them to burn for at least an hour initially helps establish a full melt pool.
Can I burn these candles in a humid environment?+
While these candles are designed for general use, excessive humidity can slightly impact the scent throw. Ensure good ventilation and avoid placing the candle directly next to any sources of high moisture.
What is the recommended diameter for my dining table?+
We recommend using 2-3 candles per standard rectangular dining table (approximately 6ft long) to create a balanced and inviting atmosphere. Adjust based on your room size and desired level of fragrance intensity.
How do I care for my scented candle?+
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each burn to ensure a clean, even flame and prevent excessive smoking. Avoid burning for more than 4 hours at a time.
Are these candles suitable for sensitive individuals?+
While formulated with natural fragrance oils, some individuals may be sensitive to scents. We recommend testing a small area before placing the candle in a frequently used space and keeping it away from those with known sensitivities.
What size are the candles?+
These candles typically come in standard sizes – often 80mm (3.15 inches) diameter and 90mm (3.54 inches) height, but specific dimensions may vary slightly depending on the scent blend.
How many times can I burn these candles?+
You can typically burn these candles 6-8 times before the fragrance diminishes significantly. Proper care, such as trimming the wick and avoiding drafts, will help maximize their lifespan.
Are these candles suitable for outdoor use?+
No, these candles are designed for indoor use only. The wax is not formulated to withstand outdoor conditions (sunlight, rain, wind) and could melt or degrade quickly.
What if the candle arrives damaged?+
Please contact Amazon Customer Service immediately with photos of the damage. They will guide you through the process for initiating a return or replacement under their standard returns policy.
