Candle Care Guide

For the perfect burn and long-lasting fragrance

Your Neill Strain Floral Couture candle has been meticulously crafted to bring luxury and refinement into your space. Follow these simple care tips to ensure the best experience.

Before You Light

- Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn to ensure a clean, even flame and prevent excessive smoke.
- Place on a heat-resistant surface away from drafts, curtains, and flammable materials.
- Allow the wax to settle at room temperature before lighting for the first time.

During Use

- Let the wax pool – Burn until the melted wax reaches the edges of the vessel (typically 2-3 hours) to prevent tunnelling.
- Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time to maintain an optimal scent throw and candle longevity.
- Keep away from children and pets and never leave a burning candle unattended.

After Each Burn

- Extinguish gently – Use a snuffer or blow softly to avoid wax splatter.
- Re-centre the wick while the wax is still warm to ensure an even burn next time.
- Allow the wax to cool completely before relighting or moving the candle.

Maximising Your Candle’s Life

- Stop using your candle when 10mm of wax remains to prevent overheating the vessel.
- Reuse or recycle the glass container – Once the wax is fully used, clean the vessel with warm water and repurpose it elegantly.

Storing Your Candle

- Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent wax discoloration.
- Store in a cool, dry place to preserve the fragrance’s integrity.

Each candle is hand-poured and infused with the finest fragrance blends, ensuring an exquisite sensory experience. We hope it brings warmth, beauty, and indulgence to your home.
