IV- Fortitudo Lignorum large scented candlel Amanda de Montal

The Fragrance : Fortitudo Lignorum

Every time, when I go back to our family home, my 1st stop is the large drawing room. There is an amazing smell of past chimney fires , armagnac, my father’s tobacco and incense. It never changes as if time freezes. 
With Fortitudo, I tried to encapsulate time and place, the strength of memories so that it can follow me wherever I am. 

Strong and vibrant, I would suggest you put this candle in your office, drawing room or library.

In order to respect mother nature, the brand has ensured that all the 1kg candles are rechargeable.

Once your 1st candle is fully burnt you need only order the recharge and place in the pot.

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.
