The elegant scent of the Feu De Bois candle mimics that of an open burning log fire, capturing its smokey and crisp characteristics. Ideal for those who want to close their eyes and be transported inside to a warm winters night by the fire. The first time you burn your Diptyque candle, allow it to burn for at least two hours, until the whole top is liquid with wax. This will help your candle burn evenly throughout. After blowing out your candle, re-centre and straighten the wick. Before relighting your Diptyque candle, trim the wick to 1/4-inch length. By shortening the wick you allow it to burn more slowly and also avoid unsightly black smoke marks around the edge of the glass.
