Description
The ‘piece de resistance’ of our candle range is this large 500ml glass with triple cotton wick. Our large Black Gold scented candle is packaged in a dramatically embellished box with hand drawn illustrations and extravagant amounts of gold foil.
Our candles are hand poured in South Africa, using a soy wax blend and finest perfume oils imported from the Grasse region of France. The elegant Cape Island glass cup can be rinsed and recycled once the candle is done.
Honouring Africa’s natural wealth through the medium of fragrance, Black Gold imbues the royalty of Africa. Our inspiration was drawn from the ancient Kingdom of Mapungubwe where the famed golden rhino was discovered in 1932. The Black Gold fragrance pays homage to the endangered wildlife of Africa and a rhino adorns the packaging as a symbol of this meaningful tribute.
Fragrance Description: Black Gold where gourmand notes of aniseed, black cherry and rum give way to the pull of lingering tobacco and rich oud
Approximate burning time: 55 hours
Fill your home with the decadent scent of Black Gold.
Candle Care
Tips on taking care of your candle:
1. Trim the wick
To ensure an even and smoke-free burn, the wick should be trimmed to a length of 5mm before each burn. The best time to do this is when the candle wax is completely cool.
2. Create a melt pool
Allow your candle to burn until a pool of wax forms on the candle surface. Wax has a memory and if you extinguish too soon, this may result in "tunnelling". In order to get the most from your candle and maximise scent throw, it is ideal for the entire surface of the candle to liquefy before extinguishing.
3. The 4-hour rule
Never exceed a 4-hour burning time in any burn subsequent to the initial burn. This will help to preserve the fragrance of your candle and prevent unsightly debris and soot from dirtying the wax. Allow your candle to rest for a minimum of 2 hours before lighting again.
4. Never blow out your candle
Blowing out your candle generates a lot of smoke and debris. This mixes with the liquid wax. When the wax is melted, gently turn the wick into the liquid wax to extinguish. After extinguishing, re-centre the wick so that the candle burns evenly.
