270g Scented Soy Candle
Houghton - No.5131
Our wanderings led us to perfectly terraced orchards where 150-year-old fig trees invited us to pick their sun-warmed fruit. As we filled our basket, the trees allowed a welcome breeze that brought the scent of fresh green leaves blended with a warm balsamic undertone, almost reminiscent of men's cologne.
This sensual fragrance begins with notes of fig leaf and bergamot, moving into the enticing scent of cypress above a luxuriously warm and substantial base of cedar and musk.
It is inspired by the ultimate fig picking experience at the Willabrand orchards at Glen Ewin Estate in Houghton.

Care information
Care information
Our candles are made to provide you with hours of beautiful fragrance. To keep them looking and working their best (and safest), follow our tips to enjoy a complete scent experience and maintain the quality of your candle for longer.
HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR CANDLE
Burn your candle for at least two to three hours on the first use. If you don't, you run the risk of burning straight down the centre of the candle (tunnelling) and missing out on precious hours of fragrance.
To avoid tunnelling ensure the melted wax reaches the edges during each burn.
Trim the candle wick with a wick trimmer before each use (to 7mm). If the wick is too long, it will put off soot and black smoke, plus burn faster.
Do not burn continuously for more than four hours.
Always keep the candle away from children and pets.
Only burn on level, heat resistant surfaces. Please also be aware that placing a hot candle on a cool surface like marble or glass may cause the vessel to crack.
Keep candle free of dust and foreign materials as these can dull the scent and cause problems during burning
Keep lit candles in view and never leave a lit candle unattended.
Lit candles are very hot so never touch the candle jar.
Never burn the candle to the bottom of the jar, only to the last 10mm of wax. Otherwise it could result in the jar overheating and cause a fire.
HOW TO STORE YOUR CANDLE
When your candle isn't in use, store in a cool dry place and replace the dust cover to protect the wax from dust.
Condensation on the surface of a candle is a sign it has not been stored correctly, or has been stored for too long. Make sure to wipe this away with a paper towel before lighting.
Storing candles for too long can affect the scent, so use your candle in a reasonable time to make the most of it's beautiful fragrance.
