DIPTYQUEOrtie (Nettle) Classic Candle

-+
Item #20689127
On a trail surrounded by nature, damp nettle leaves reveal their green, aromatic, and enigmatic scent.

On the tree-lined path, they mingle with mint and a few violet leaves. Nettles, in the heart of the wilderness, awaken the senses.

The result of exceptional craftsmanship, the art of perfumery meets candle-making expertise. Each candle is made from a blend of several types of wax and a high-quality fragrance concentrate, as well as a selection of a wick that guarantee perfect scent diffusion and combustion. Meticulous work carried out in two factories, near Paris and in Provence, by master candle makers.

The bohemian neighborhood of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, 1963. 
The three founders' fascination with nature gave rise to an exceptional herbarium of scents. Flowers, fruits, trees, herbs and spices make up this living collection.
  • Suitable for small and medium-sized rooms

  • Size: height 3,5""; diameter 3"""
Prepare your space:
  • Place your candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
  • Protect delicate materials such as wood or marble with a stand or tray.
  • Keep candles away from flammable materials.
  • Keep candles out of reach of children and pets.
Light the candle:
  • We recommend lighting your candle with a match to avoid any risk of burning yourself.
  • During the first burn, make sure to let the candle burn until a uniform pool of melted wax has formed (about 4 hours depending on the scent). This prevents the wax from tunneling and allows the wick to absorb the wax properly, ensuring an even burn thereafter. Wicks may produce a small amount of smoke when first lit.
While burning:
  • Do not burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time after the first burn.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Do not move a burning or unlit hot candle.
  • Keep it away from draft.
  • Leave at least 10 cm (4 inches) between two candles.
After each use:
  • Snuff out the flame: use a snuffer to avoid splashing hot wax.
  • Re-center the wick once the candle is out.
  • Before relighting your candle, use a wick trimmer to trim the wick (ideal length: 3 to 5 mm) to avoid risk of fire.
Final note:
  • Stop using your candle once there is only 5 mm of wax left or the metal wick sustainer base becomes visible.
After care & storage:
  • We recommend airing out the room after burning a candle.
  • Allow the wax to cool completely before moving your candle.
  • Store it in a dry, temperate place (15 °C–25 °C / 59 °F–77 °F), away from direct sunlight to avoid discoloration, pigmentation or dislodge of the wax.
