When candlelight meets fragrance notes, the space acquires emotions

The moment the scented candle is lit, it's like hitting the pause button on life. The flickering candlelight softens the light, and the wafting fragrance wraps the senses. This is the simplest yet most effective home SPA. Different scents can shape completely different spatial qualities: the cedarwood note brings a scholarly atmosphere to the study, the FIG milk scent makes the bedroom more laid-back, and the grapefruit and citrus scent infuses the bathroom with fresh vitality.

Scent is the most powerful form of memory.

-- Jean Paul Guerlain

An advanced guide to Playing with incense

Top and bottom note combination: First, light the fresh note (such as lemon) for 30 minutes, then switch to the warm note (such as sandalwood) to create a layered change in the space's fragrance.
Seasonal fragrance list: Cherry blossoms/white tea in spring, ocean/watermelon in summer, cinnamon/apple in autumn, amber/frankincense in winter.
Exclusive space: The entrance hall awakens the senses with mint, the living room creates a warm atmosphere with Earl Grey tea fragrance, and the bedroom helps with sleep with lavender.

A safe and romantic usage

The first burning should last for more than 2 hours to avoid forming a memory circle.
Light safely with a long match or igniter to avoid burning your hand.
The wick is kept at 0.5cm in length and the flame height is moderate.
When is extinguished, cover it with a bell cover to prevent black smoke from being blown out.
Turn the glass cover upside down when not in use to prevent dust.
