Designed in a workshop in Normandy, each candle is handcrafted in accordance with this superb wealth of knowledge, using entirely organic materials of high quality which are then lovingly poured into a white-lacquered glass.
Paying homage to the brand’s sustainable ethos, the packaging is plastic-free and made from 100% recycled FSC paper, accompanied by an elegantly illustrated floral print using vegetable-based inks. Botanical and aromatic, these luxurious candles are ideal for putting your mind at ease and transporting you into a deep mode of serenity.

Advice: Always burn your candle until the whole surface becomes liquid. This step may take a long time, especially during the first burning. When the entire top of the wax is liquid, do not burn it longer than two hours at a time. The top layer of liquid wax should never exceed one centimetre in height. Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch at all times to avoid any black smoke. Once only ¼ inch of wax remains, blow out the candle and let it fully cool before safely discarding it.
