I love your website. Beautifully conceived, well executed, and crucially, informative.
One detail I’d like to add to your Diptyque candle care page.
A few years ago I began buying their medium candles, and let them burn down to the bottom of the glass. Two of them exploded, leaving glass shards on the surface they were resting on. I spoke to Diptyque, who said this:
1. When there’s 1 cm of wax left at the bottom of the glass, stop burning it (I’ve been buying their candles since the 1980s, and no candles ever exploded).
2. Never use them on a cold surface (mine were both on a warm wood surface).
They then very sweetly sent me one of their wick trimmers and a candle stand…
Voilà!
Kind regards,
Jean-Pierre

Is there a discount code to use for you to get a commission?

* don’t trim the wick after burning, leave it long
* put the candle in an oven safe pan
* heat the oven to 200° – 250° and place the candle inside for about 10 minutes, or until the wax melts evenly across the surface (every oven is different, so keep an eye on the candle)
* trim the wick as needed after the wax has cooled

I use this trick also when the candle has burnt down but there is still some wax left. I melt it completely and poured it into a new candle. Generally new candles have a very long wick and some space between the surface of the wax and the top of the container. That way I never waste any of the candle.

Hi Robbie! I am so happy you love them too! I hope you love Fig and Tuberose as much as I do. I don’t have any experience with room sprays. I typically light a candle if I want to enjoy a scent.

I love Diptyque candles and will definitely be purchasing the Fig & Tuberose because of your recommendation. Have you ever tried the Diptyque room sprays? If so, I’d value your opinion.

Hi Evana,

I am so sorry about your Diptyque candle. I would contact the shop you purchased it and see if they can replace it for a new one.

Quite disappointing. This is the first time this has happened, and the 6th Diptyque candle I have purchased. What should I do, please? Thank you.

Personally, I love the Fig one so much and Tuberose is always a staple at home.
