FAQ
What type of wax is used in these Premium Scented Candles?
These candles are made with a high-quality blend of natural soy wax and paraffin wax for optimal fragrance throw and a clean, even burn. The ratio ensures the scent lasts longer than typical soy-only candles.
How long will each candle burn?
Each Premium Scented Candle is designed to burn for approximately 60-80 hours on a normal setting, depending on factors such as wick trimming and environmental conditions. We recommend trimming the wick to 3mm before each burn.
Are these candles suitable for use in humid environments?
While we’ve formulated these candles to perform well in most environments, prolonged exposure to high humidity can affect wax performance. We advise keeping them away from direct steam or excessively damp areas.
What is the diameter of the candle vessels?
The vessels for our Premium Scented Candles have a diameter of 7cm (2.75 inches). This size is ideal for creating a beautiful focal point in any room while providing ample space for fragrance diffusion.
Do I need to use a wick trimmer?
Yes, it’s highly recommended to regularly trim the wick to 3mm before each burn using a wick trimmer. This ensures a clean, even flame and prevents excessive smoking or soot production.
Can these candles be burned in an enclosed space?
While they can be burned in smaller spaces, we recommend burning them in a room with adequate ventilation to prevent the build-up of fragrance molecules. Ensure there are no flammable materials nearby.
What is the scent throw like on these candles?
The ‘Premium’ designation signifies a significantly enhanced scent throw – you should be able to detect the fragrance throughout a medium-sized room (approximately 400-600 square feet) with each burn. This is achieved through carefully selected fragrance oils and wax blends.
Are the vessels reusable?
The candle vessels are designed for single use. However, they can be repurposed for other decorative purposes after the wax has been fully consumed – such as holding tealight candles or displaying small trinkets.
What is the burn time if I don't trim the wick?
If you fail to trim the wick regularly, it will become longer and create a larger flame. This leads to increased soot production, reduced fragrance throw, and a shorter overall burn time – typically around 40-50 hours.
Are these candles suitable for gifting?
Absolutely! Our Premium Scented Candles make an excellent gift choice. They come beautifully packaged in elegant boxes, perfect for presenting to friends or family who appreciate luxurious home fragrances.
