Why do we use vegetable wax in our candles?
We use 100% vegetable wax for the fresh cedar scented candle. This wax is selected for its combustion and diffusion qualities: it reveals the notes of cedar wood with precision.

NATURALNESS
Our candle contains wax that is 100% vegetable-based, but is it natural?
Absolutely! Natural wax can be made from mineral or vegetal ingredients.
The difference?
Vegetable wax, extracted from plants such as soy or rice, is biodegradable and has the advantage of releasing no black smoke when burned.
• Mineral wax from paraffin is often used in candle making. Its advantages include being highly available, colourless, and odourless. It is, however, non-renewable.
In a more eco-responsible approach, all the candles in this collection are made from 100% vegetable wax, derived from soy and sunflower. What better way to scent your home than with a beautiful, natural, eco-designed, handmade candle?

FAQ
Before lighting your candle: place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Make sure the wick is straight, then light it with a lighter or match. When first used, allow the candle to burn for at least 3-4 hours, until all the wax has become liquid on the surface. This will prevent the wax from hollowing out around the wick. Never leave the burning wick in contact with the edge of the candle.
