Existing 4711 Acqua Colonia wearers who want the matching home candle — and anyone drawn to bright, citrus-aromatic home fragrances. Suited to the kitchen, dining room or as a daytime living-room scent, particularly in spring and summer.
How to use
- On the first burn, allow the candle to melt all the way to the edges of the glass — typically 2 to 3 hours. This prevents tunnelling on later burns.
- Trim the wick to about 5mm before each subsequent lighting to keep the flame even and reduce sooting.
- Burn on a flat, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, soft furnishings and pets.
- Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
- Snuff or dip the wick to extinguish — avoid blowing out, which can produce smoke.
