Candle | ​Matcha + Spices

• 2 oz candle: 15h – do not burn for more than 2 hours at a time (the container may overheat)
• 4 oz candle: 25h – do not burn for more than 3 hours at a time (ideally 2–3 hours per session)
• 8 oz candle: 50h – do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time (ideally 2–3 hours per session)

• before lighting, trim the wick to ¼ inch above the wax surface.
• place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface — out of reach of children, pets, drafts, and flammable materials.
• let the candle burn until the entire surface is melted.
• for small sizes (2 oz), place the candle on a coaster, as the small container can become very hot. It is also recommended not to burn them for more than 2 consecutive hours to prevent the container from overheating.
• trim the wick again before the next use.
• when the candle is finished, the remaining wax can be removed by placing the container in the freezer overnight or by pouring boiling water over the cooled wax, allowing it to float to the surface — you can then wash and reuse the container!

the 1 oz candles, being four times smaller than our regular 8 oz sizes, offer a naturally softer and more subtle diffusion. in addition, there is a safety limit to the amount of fragrance that can be added: beyond a certain percentage, the flame can become unstable and give off too much heat or soot. we therefore always stay below this threshold to ensure a healthy and safe product. for an optimal experience, we recommend placing your 2 oz candles in a smaller space (closed room, bathroom, entryway, etc.).

this is a common — and entirely legitimate — concern. headaches are often caused by overly concentrated fragrances or those containing harsh synthetic ingredients.

at SOJA&CO., our scents are formulated to provide a balanced and enveloping diffusion, never overwhelming. they are free of phthalates and toxic substances, and meet the strictest industry standards.

additionally, soy wax burns much cleaner than paraffin, reducing unwanted emissions. the result: you can fragrance your space gently, without discomfort, for a pleasant and soothing olfactory experience.

yes. all our fragrances comply with IFRA standards and are formulated without respiratory sensitizers. you can enjoy your candle with complete peace of mind. learn more about our scents.

here are some possible solutions:

tunneling in the wax: melt the surface with a hairdryer or match (careful with the heat), then absorb the excess with a paper towel or level it with a blunt knife.

ash buildup: remove it before lighting the candle, otherwise the flame will be weak.

improperly trimmed wick: always trim the cotton wick to ¼ inch before each use to prevent premature extinguishing.

we are currently working on a way to recycle your empty jars — more information coming soon! in the meantime, we encourage you to reuse them at home — here are a few ideas.

each fragrance is carefully described to guide you: top notes, heart notes, base notes —and, above all, the true ambiance it creates once the candle is lit.
