candle care and candle tips
What is the best way to extend the life of my candle?
We recommend that you extend the life of your CUVÉE CANDLE by trimming the wick to 0.5 cm before each burn and allowing the wax to melt evenly on the surface. This will prevent tunneling and preserve the wonderful fragrance. We would like to remind you that a burn cycle of a luxury candle can last between 3 and 4 hours. It would be wonderful if you let the candle burn during this period.
What is the difference between cold and hot throw candles?
COLD THROW is the fragrance when unlit, while HOT THROW is released when lit. CUVÉE CANDLES are designed to release an intense fragrance in both states.
How do I fix a candle that is tunneling?
Wrap aluminum foil around the edge of the candle, creating a sort of tunnel, and let the candle burn for a few hours. With your luxurious CUVÉE CANDLE, make sure to trim the wick to 0.5 cm each time and follow the burn cycle of 3-4 hours per burn.
How should I store my luxury candles?
Store CUVÉE CANDLES in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight. Use a glass dome to display your candles at home, protect the fragrance and avoid dust buildup.
