The Oud candle from Diptyque envelops the room in the mystical and noble scent of agarwood. It's a fragrance that exudes richness and depth, a scent that evokes age-old traditions while simultaneously maintaining a modern refinement. As soon as the flame ignites, a warm, smoky intensity spreads, filling the interior with a sense of strength and elegance.
The fragrance opens with dark, woody facets that immediately create an aura of mystery. At the heart, the balsamic softness of resins emerges, rounding off the sharp edges and imbuing the composition with velvety warmth. As the candle burns, the scent deepens into a sensual blend of smoke and earth, creating an atmosphere that is both spiritual and luxurious. Oud is intense, majestic, and timeless.

To get the most out of your Diptyque candle, follow these burning instructions:
-
First burning: Let the candle burn for at least 2 to 3 hours, allowing the top layer to fully liquefy. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn.
-
Wick Care: Trim the wick to about 3 to 5 mm before relighting the candle. This prevents smoke and ensures a stable flame.
-
Limit burning time: Do not burn the candle for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time to prevent overheating and uneven combustion.
-
Extinguishing the flame: Use a candle snuffer or blow gently to minimize smoke and spatters.
-
Wax Restoration: If the wax has melted unevenly, you can let the candle burn until the top layer liquefies again.
-
Do not allow the candle to burn completely: Stop using when approximately 5mm of wax remains to prevent overheating of the glass.
By following these guidelines, you will enjoy your Diptyque candle longer and more safely.
