How to use
Peaches Please! has a strong, sweet scent. These steps help you use it in small rooms as well as large ones.
- Burn it for two to three hours the first time. The melted wax must reach the edge of the jar.
- Each time you light it, the wick must be 6 mm long. Trim it if it is longer.
- In a bedroom or small office, one hour is often enough. Then put it out and open the door.
- In a large room, burn it for up to four hours, and no longer.
- It looks like a dessert. Keep it out of reach of children and pets, and never leave it lit alone.
- The peach rings, the crumble and the whipped top are wax, and they become part of the melt pool.
- At 1 cm of wax, stop burning it. Then wash the jar and use it for makeup brushes or craft supplies.

Frequently asked questions
What does Peaches Please! smell like?
Peaches and cream. Ripe peach, coconut and bergamot at the top, pineapple flower and banana in the middle, creamy vanilla and tonka bean underneath.
Is it a fresh peach scent?
It is ripe peach with cream, not a green, fresh-cut peach. The vanilla and tonka base makes it soft and creamy.
Is it too strong for a small room?
It can be. In a bedroom or a small office, burn it for an hour rather than four and let the room air afterwards.
Is it a good gift for a teenager?
It is the one they pick most often. The jar looks like a dessert and the scent is easy to recognise.
Are the peach rings on top real sweets?
No. They are moulded wax. Nothing on this candle is food, and the topping melts into the pool as it burns.
How long does a 10 oz candle burn?
45 to 55 hours, depending on how long you burn it each time and how draughty the room is.
