Know before you buy
This scent is a blend of spicy and gourmand notes. You will primarily notice warm cardamom, clove, and incense balanced by the sweetness of vanilla and a delicate floral hint of orange blossom, reminiscent of an Italian pastry shop.
The candle is formulated without phthalates, petroleum, or lead, making it a cleaner option than many traditional paraffin candles. However, because it contains fragrance oils, we recommend burning it in a well-ventilated area if you have pets or sensitivities.
This candle is made with 100% soy wax. Soy wax is a renewable, plant-based alternative to paraffin that typically burns slower and cleaner, resulting in less soot buildup in your home.
To maintain a clean, smokeless burn, trim the cotton wick to about 1/4 inch before every lighting. This prevents the flame from becoming too large and helps the candle last longer.
The Italia candle is designed to be sophisticated and immersive rather than overpowering. It provides a noticeable, room-filling aroma that is balanced enough to be enjoyed for several hours at a time.
