Candle Care Tips: How to Get the Most From Your Luxury Candles

Investing in a quality candle means enjoying beautiful fragrance and ambiance for many hours. Following a few simple candle care practices can help maximize both performance and longevity.

Trim Your Wick

Before each burn, trim the wick to approximately ¼ inch. This helps create a cleaner burn, reduces soot, and promotes an even flame.

Allow a Full Melt Pool

During the first burn, allow the wax to melt completely across the surface of the candle. This helps prevent tunneling and ensures an even burn throughout the life of the candle.

Avoid Drafts

Keep candles away from fans, open windows, and air vents. Drafts can cause uneven burning and reduce fragrance performance.

Burn Responsibly

For best results, burn your candle for 2–4 hours at a time. This allows the fragrance to fully develop while helping maintain the quality of the wax.

Store Properly

When not in use, store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve both the fragrance and appearance.

With proper care, your favorite Pursuit candle can continue creating beautiful moments and lasting memories burn after burn.
