"Your Diptyque candle is an exceptional artisanal creation and deserves the utmost care. Here are some tips to optimize its lifespan and ensure safe use.
Preparing the space
- Place your candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
- Protect delicate materials such as wood or marble with a base or tray.
- Keep candles away from flammable materials.
- Keep candles out of reach of children and pets.
Lighting the candle
- We recommend lighting your candle with a match to avoid burns.
- When lighting for the first time, be sure to let the candle burn until an even layer of liquid wax has formed (approx. 4 hours, depending on the fragrance). This prevents the wax from tunneling and allows the wick to properly absorb the wax, ensuring even burning. Wicks may produce a small amount of smoke when first lit.
While burning
- After the first lighting, do not let the candle burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Do not move a burning candle or a hot, unlit candle.
- Keep it away from drafts.
- Leave at least 10 cm of space between two candles.
After each use
- Extinguish the flame: Use a snuffer to avoid hot wax splatters.
- Re-center the wick as soon as the candle is extinguished.
- Trim the wick with a wick trimmer before relighting your candle (ideal length: 3 to 5 mm) to avoid fire hazards.
Final note
- Stop using your candle when only 5 mm of wax remains or the metal wick base becomes visible.
Care & storage
- We recommend ventilating the room after burning a candle.
- Allow the wax to cool completely before moving your candle.
- Store it in a dry, tempered place (15°C–25°C / 59°F–77°F), protected from direct sunlight, to avoid discoloration, pigment changes, or wax detachment."
