Product Information

Full details

The Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis Scented Candle is designed for individuals who appreciate refined home fragrance and luxury interior aesthetics, offering a bright, citrusy-floral atmosphere that instantly refreshes any living space. Its primary benefit is the sophisticated, long-lasting scent profile of bergamot, lemon, white flowers, and musky woods; however, potential users should note that the luxury porcelain vessel requires careful handling to prevent staining or thermal shock, and the high-end fragrance concentration is best suited for medium-sized rooms to avoid overwhelming smaller spaces.

FAQs

How long should I burn the candle at one time?

It is recommended to burn the candle for 2 to 3 hours at a time, and no more than 4 hours, to maintain the wax integrity.

Can I repurpose the porcelain jar?

Yes, once the wax is finished, you can carefully clean out the remaining residue with warm soapy water to use the jar as a decorative container.

Does the candle contain paraffin or soy wax?

Maison Francis Kurkdjian uses high-quality mineral and vegetable wax blends to ensure the best possible scent performance.

Why is there soot on the porcelain rim?

Sooting is usually caused by a wick that is too long. Trim the wick regularly to keep the flame controlled.

Is it safe to leave the candle burning unattended?

No. Always keep the candle within sight and away from children, pets, and flammable materials while lit.

What are the primary scent notes?

The fragrance profile includes bergamot, lemon, white flowers, and musky woods.

Troubleshooting

The candle is 'tunneling' (burning only in the center).

Ensure the candle burns long enough for the entire surface to liquefy, usually 2-3 hours, during each session.

The wick is producing excessive smoke.

Extinguish the flame, let the candle cool, and trim the charred tip of the wick to 1/4 inch before relighting.

The scent is not strong enough.

Move the candle to a smaller room or away from open windows where the fragrance may be dissipating too quickly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your candle, always trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch before each lighting to prevent excess soot and smoke. Place the candle on a heat-resistant, level surface away from drafts, curtains, or flammable materials to ensure safety and an even burn.

When extinguishing, use a metal wick dipper or carefully blow it out, then replace the gold-toned cap once the wax has fully cooled; this keeps the dust out and protects the fragrance oils from evaporating. Because the container is made of porcelain, avoid placing it in areas with extreme temperature fluctuations, such as near a direct heat source like a radiator or in direct sunlight, to prevent cracking.
