Fructus Vasconia Voluptas scented candle Amanda de Montal

The Fragrance: Fructus Vasconia Voluptas

Under the fig tree on a hot sunny afternoon in the Château orchard, where the sweetness of the fig mingles with the scent of warm grass and nourishing plumbs. Vasconia ( Gascony in Latin) embodies this harmonious yet powerful scent , symbol of the Gascon « art de vivre ».

Its strength makes the scent perfectly suited for an entrance, kitchen or large areas.

This exceptional fragrance by Amanda de Montal is a tribute to this French elixir, to its nobility and the magic of Gascony.

The exquisite fire blown glass with its breathtaking bubbles allows the light to flicker like a cristal and gives life to the candle.

1. Trim the wicks regularly. They can not exceed 1 cm, 1/3 inch. 2. Always burn the candle until the whole surface becomes liquid. This will avoid the candle to hollow and preserve its exceptional quality. (It can take a long time at first burning when the wax is hard) 3. Dark smoke after some hours burning means the wicks are too long. It is time to put out the candle. 4. Five minutes after putting out the candle and before the wax is totally solid, reposition the wicks vertically to their initial place. 5. Regularly clean the inside of the candle to avoid the appearance of soot. 6. Never burn the last centimeter, 1/2 inch of wax to avoid wicks burning against the glass/metal.
