Full details

FAQs
How long does the candle burn?
While burn time can vary based on environmental factors like room temperature and drafts, a standard Diptyque classic candle typically provides approximately 50 to 60 hours of burn time.
Can I leave the candle burning unattended?
No. For safety, you should never leave a burning candle unattended and should keep it away from children and pets.
Is the glass container reusable?
Yes, once the candle is finished and the remaining wax is cleaned out, the glass vessel can be repurposed as a decorative jar or pen holder.
Does the scent fill a large house?
The Mimosa scent is designed to be delicate and airy; it is best suited for localized areas rather than scenting an entire large home.
What should I do if the wick sinks into the wax?
Use a wick dipper or a pair of tweezers to carefully lift the wick back into an upright, centered position while the wax is still soft.
Troubleshooting
Uneven wax pool (tunneling)
Ensure you burn the candle for a sufficient duration during the first use until the top layer of wax is completely melted across the surface.
Flame is too high or flickering
Extinguish the flame, allow the candle to cool, and trim the wick to 5mm before relighting.
Visible soot on glass
Wipe the inside of the cooled glass with a damp paper towel and ensure the wick is properly centered and trimmed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your candle, always trim the wick to approximately 5mm before each lighting; this prevents the flame from becoming too large and helps avoid excess soot. When extinguishing the candle, it is best to use a specialized wick dipper or snuffer to avoid smoke. Always place the candle on a heat-resistant surface and away from flammable materials. Because of its elegant gold-accented design, keep the glass vessel free of dust and handle with care when moving it after use, as the glass can become quite warm.
