Frequently Asked Questions
Safety
Scented candles are safe to use when burned correctly in a well-ventilated space. To minimise risks, choose high-quality candles made from natural waxes and natural fragrant oils. Always ensure proper ventilation and avoid prolonged exposure in enclosed spaces.
SOPHIA MAE’s scented candles are made from a blend of vegan wax, including rapeseed, coconut, and soy, and contain no paraffin.
Sustainability
Yes, our candle holders are designed to be reused. Once the candle has burned down, simply remove any remaining wax and clean the glass. The holder can then be given a second life in many ways, such as a flower pot, pen holder, or makeup brush holder.
Product features
Scented candles generally have a long lifespan and no specific expiration date, though their quality may change over time. Factors such as fragrance intensity and storage conditions can affect their longevity.
After a year, the scent may gradually fade, but the candle will still be safe and burn effectively.
Scented candles release fragrance oils into the air as the wax melts. When the wick is lit, the heat from the flame melts the nearby wax, allowing the fragrance oils to evaporate and diffuse throughout the room. This process fills the space with a pleasant aroma, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The approximate burning hours vary depending on the size:
Scented candle mini: 10 hours
Scented candle midi: 30 hours
Scented candle maxi: 70 hours
Care instructions
To preserve the quality of the fragrance, we recommend burning the candle for no more than three hours at a time. If the temperature inside the glass becomes too high, it can affect the fragrance composition.
For a safe and optimal burn, we recommend:
- First use: Let the candle burn until the entire surface has melted during the first lighting to prevent tunneling.
- Safe burning: Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from children, pets, and flammable objects. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Flame and smoke: If the flame is too high or the candle smokes, extinguish it and trim the wick to about 5 mm for a steadier flame and to prevent soot.
- General tips: Keep the candle away from breezes or air currents to maintain an even burn and a consistent fragrance release.
Fragrance
Our scented candles are designed to diffuse a refined yet noticeable fragrance. Even when unlit, you can subtly detect the scent. While burning, the fragrance fills the room and, depending on the size of the space and ventilation, can linger for several hours after the candle has been extinguished.
Result
The burn time of a scented candle depends on factors such as size, wax type, wick, and how the candle is used. In general, the larger the candle, the longer the burn time.
Our midi scented candles burn for up to 30 hours and the maxi scented candles for up to 70 hours. For the best results, we recommend placing the candle in a draft-free spot, keeping the wick trimmed to about 5 mm, and avoiding burning it for more than three hours at a time.
Usage
To use a scented candle effectively, trim the wick to about 5 mm before each use to prevent excessive soot and uneven burning. Light the candle in a well-ventilated room, away from drafts, and let it burn until the entire surface has melted to avoid tunneling. Extinguish the flame with a candle snuffer or by dipping the wick into the melted wax. Always follow safety guidelines by keeping candles away from flammable objects and never leaving them unattended.
Our candles are perfect for both small and large rooms. In smaller spaces, the fragrance naturally feels more concentrated, while in larger rooms it offers a softer, more subtle diffusion. The midi is well-suited for intimate areas like a bathroom or bedroom, and the maxi is ideal for spacious living areas. For the best burn and fragrance experience, always place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface and keep it away from breezes or air currents.
Specific situations
Our candles are designed for indoor use. If you choose to burn the candle outdoors, place it in a sheltered spot, away from wind and rain, to maintain an even flame and optimal fragrance diffusion.
Benefits
Our scented candles are made from a blend of vegan wax, including rapeseed, coconut, and soy, and contain no paraffin. We have intentionally chosen a timeless design that encourages reuse. Once the candle has burned down, the holder can be repurposed as a flower pot, pen holder, or makeup brush holder. This way, we combine luxury with sustainability.
