Feulle de Lavande (Lavender Leaf) Scented Candle

What it is: A delicate lavender-scented candle with notes of lavender leaf and lemon verbena for a fresh, delicate home fragrance.

Fragrance story: Inspired by the summer sky and lavender bushes on the hills of Haute Provence that blend into a harmonious palette of blues as far as the eye can see. Surrounded by fields, the mineral scent of the earth lends spice to the lively, rustic notes of the delicate little blue flowers. On a large table, a botanist lays out the plants he is about to draw. There are leaves, flowers, buds on the verge of opening and herbs of every kind. The lavender sprigs and stems of lemon verbena fill the workshop with their sweet, aromatic notes.

How to use: The first time you burn your diptyque candle, allow it to burn for at least two hours until the whole top is liquid with wax to help your candle burn more evenly next time. Before lighting, trim the wick to 1/4-inch length, which will allow the candle to burn slowly and will help avoid unsightly black marks around the edge of the glass. After blowing out your candle, re-center and straighten the wick.
