How long do the candles last?

The burn time depends on the size of your candles:

The Small Candle (70g): 20 to 24 hours

The Classic Candle (185g): 40 to 45 hours

These burn times may vary depending on the conditions of use.

How do I care for my candle?

Please use your candle following the instructions in the user leaflet that comes with each candle. You can also find these instructions on our website.

My candle does not burn straight

Please use your candle following the instructions in the user leaflet that comes with each candle.

If your wick is off-centre, extinguish the flame, pinch the non-incandescent wick between your fingers and pull it towards the centre. This operation must be carried out delicately and whilst the surface wax is still melted. Repeat this operation between each burn session until your wick is centred once again.

The scent of my room spray doesn't last

Our room sprays are designed to create an instant scented atmosphere. To revive the scent, a few sprays will suffice. You can also use your room spray on fabrics, curtains, rugs, bedspreads, etc. The scent will thus last longer.

If you wish to enjoy a continuous olfactory experience, we invite you to discover our range of scented candles and diffusers.

Please use your candle following the instructions in the user leaflet that comes with each candle.

In order to ensure that the scent of a candle can best express itself, the entire surface of the candle must be melted.
