Troubleshooting
Candle is tunneling (wax only melts in the center)
Ensure you burned the candle for at least 2-3 hours during the first use, allowing the wax pool to reach the edges. Trim the wick to 3-5mm before each subsequent burn.
Sooting or black smoke
Trim the wick to 3-5mm. Ensure the candle is not in a drafty area. Avoid burning for more than 4 hours at a time.
Weak scent throw
Verify the initial burn was sufficient to create a full wax pool. Ensure the wick is trimmed and the room is not excessively large or drafty. Allow the candle to burn for at least 30 minutes to an hour to allow the scent to develop.
Wick is difficult to center
Gently adjust the wick while the wax is still liquid after extinguishing the flame. If it hardens off-center, you may need to carefully reheat the surface wax slightly to recenter it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup & First Burn:
- Remove all packaging.
- Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts.
- For the very first burn, allow the candle to burn for 2-3 hours, or until the entire surface of the wax has melted to the edges. This is crucial for an even burn throughout the candle's life.
Ongoing Care:
- Wick Trimming: Before each use, trim the wick to a length of 3-5 mm. Use a wick trimmer or scissors.
- Centering the Wick: After extinguishing the flame and before the wax hardens, gently recenter the wick if it has shifted.
- Avoid Drafts: Burning the candle in a drafty area can cause uneven burning and sooting.
- Burn Time: Do not burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Compatibility:
This candle is designed for use in any indoor living space. It is compatible with most standard candle holders if desired, though it is intended to be burned within its own vessel.
