Our candles come with the wick already pre-trimmed, however you should make sure your wick is trimmed to between 1/8″ – 3/16″ / 3.2mm – 4.8mm before lighting. If the wick is too long, the wax will not pull up the wick and the wick will extinguish.
Wooden wicks do need a little attention and tending to before each burn, similar to cotton wicks. Be sure to gently snap off the ash or burnt wood along the top edge of the wick and then light as usual.
If when burning the candle for a long period of time you notice the flame height getting too low, it may be necessary to tap off any excess ash or burnt wood along the top of the wick. The flame will then return to its proper optimal height.

Smelled exactly how I expected it to, it’s a lovely smell that’s similar to my boyfriends favorite cologne and it doesn’t have an alcohol undertone to it. Somehow the aesthetic of the woodwick candle and this scent go together very well.
Very clean smell.
I’d give this a 3.5…and it’s my least favorite of all the scents. The smell reminds me of a household cleaner. Remember, this is just my opinion…everyone’s different. But my nose didn’t like it.
