Product Information

Full details

This large Diptyque Feu de Bois candle is designed for those who appreciate atmospheric home fragrance and seek to evoke the cozy, comforting scent of an open fire. Its key benefit is the rich, smoky aroma that creates a warm ambiance, perfect for winter evenings. A potential caveat is its strong scent profile, which may be too intense for very small spaces or those sensitive to smoky notes. This iconic candle features a dense, smoky fragrance reminiscent of crackling logs in a hearth, presented in a grey enamelled porcelain jar.

FAQs

What is the approximate burn time for the 600g candle?

The 600g Diptyque Feu de Bois candle typically offers a burn time of around 90 hours, though this can vary based on environmental factors and wick care.

How do I get the most out of my Diptyque candle?

For optimal performance, always trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting, allow the wax to melt to the edges on the first burn, and burn in a draft-free environment.

Can the grey porcelain jar be reused?

Yes, the elegant grey enamelled porcelain jar is designed to be cleaned and reused after the candle has been fully consumed.

Is the Feu de Bois scent suitable for all seasons?

While the scent is particularly evocative of winter and hearth fires, its cozy and warm notes can be enjoyed year-round by those who appreciate smoky fragrances.

What does 'Feu de Bois' mean?

'Feu de Bois' is French for 'wood fire'.

Does this candle help purify the air?

This candle is designed for fragrance and ambiance, not for air purification.

Troubleshooting

Candle is tunneling (wax only melts in the center)

Ensure the first burn lasts long enough for the wax pool to reach the edges of the jar. Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before subsequent burns.

Wick is smoking excessively

Trim the wick to 1/4 inch. Ensure the candle is not placed in a drafty area.

Scent seems weak

Ensure the room is not too large or overly ventilated. Allow the candle to burn for at least 1-2 hours to fully release the fragrance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic and rich smoky wood scent.
  • Large size offers extended fragrance enjoyment.
  • Luxurious and decorative porcelain vessel.
  • Effectively creates a warm and cozy ambiance.

Cons

  • Scent may be too strong for small spaces or sensitive individuals.
  • High-end product with a corresponding price point.
  • Requires proper care to ensure optimal burn and longevity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
  2. Ensure the wick is centered before lighting.

Care:

  1. First Burn: Allow the wax to melt evenly to the edges of the jar on the first lighting to prevent tunneling. This typically takes 2-3 hours.
  2. Wick Trimming: Before each use, trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch (0.6 cm). This helps ensure a clean, even burn and prevents excessive smoke.
  3. Extinguishing: Use a snuffer or gently dip the wick into the melted wax pool with a wick dipper to extinguish the flame. Avoid blowing out the flame, as this can create smoke and splatter wax.
  4. Cleaning the Jar: Once the candle is finished, the porcelain jar can be cleaned and repurposed for storage or decor.

Compatibility:

This candle is designed for home use in well-ventilated areas. It is not a functional heating device.
