Charles IX – Scented Candle
Couldn't load pickup availability
On the first of May 1561, a young Charles IX is said to have been given a sprig of lily of the valley as a token of good luck. Charmed by the gesture, he began offering the delicate white flowers to the ladies of his court each spring — a tradition that would eventually become part of the French Fête du Muguet.
Charles IX captures that first breath of spring. Fresh bergamot, lemon and pear give way to a delicate floral heart of magnolia, orchid, rose and lily of the valley, resting softly on musk, dry amber and patchouli.
Fresh, elegant and quietly romantic — a fragrance of open windows, new leaves and the first flowers of May.

Candle Care
Candle Care
*Before lighting your candle, trim the wick to 5mm.
* On the first burn, you want to ensure that the first layer has completely liquified, otherwise, you get wax that adheres to the edges of the candle, causing tunnelling for every burn afterwards.
* Place candle on a safe, inflammable surface, using candle holders / candle mats.
* Keep out of the reach of children & pets.
* To avoid burning yourself, DO NOT touch the glass when the candle is lit.
* Keep away from draughts and things that are flammable.
* Always keep 10cm apart from another candle.
* Never leave a burning candle unattended.
* Keep the wax pool free of impurities & objects such as matches to prevent flaring.
* Extinguish sooting candles and trim the week to 5mm before relighting.
* Do not burn a candle all the way down. Once your candle reaches 10mm, it's time to say goodbye & stop burning it.
* Light your candle for no longer than 2 1/2 hrs at a time. Once extinguished the scent will still linger and continue to fill the room.
Burning candles for longer means the wax becomes hotter, meaning it can burn off the fragrance too quickly.
