Why do we use vegetable wax in our candles?
We use a 100% vegetable wax for the candle with the scent of fresh cedar. This wax is selected for its qualities of combustion and diffusion: it allows to reveal the notes of the 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 a biodegradable wax and has the advantage of not releasing any 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 of this collection are made of 100% vegetable wax, from soy and sunflower. A beautiful handmade candle, natural and eco-designed, what better way to perfume your home?
How to extinguish a candle?
Never blow out the wick to extinguish the candle: dip the wick in the hot wax with the help of a holder and then straighten it. Before each use, cut the wick by 5mm to promote optimal burning.

How to burn a candle correctly?

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