The 190g Diptyque candle typically offers a burn time of approximately 60 hours when maintained properly. To maximize this, ensure you trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each use.
The glass is durable, but you should always burn the candle on a heat-resistant surface and away from drafts to ensure an even melt pool. Once the wax is finished, the elegant glass container can be cleaned and repurposed as a decorative holder.
