Know before you buy
Figue Noire is a sophisticated, woody fragrance. It balances the deep, earthy notes of fig with fresh, herbaceous hints of basil, mint, and tea for a grounded yet complex aroma.
Yes, the hand-forged iron vessel is designed to be repurposed. Once the candle has burned down, you can clean out the remaining wax and use the container as a decorative object or storage piece for small items.
No, the Mad et Len Bougie Apothicaire Petite does not include a lid. The open-top design highlights the artisanal, hand-forged iron aesthetic of the vessel.
To maintain a clean, steady burn, trim the cotton wick to about 1/4 inch before each use. This prevents soot buildup and helps you get the most out of the 75-hour burn time.
Yes, the candle is formulated with a vegan, cruelty-free soy wax blend and ethically sourced ingredients. Mad et Len prioritizes slow, artisanal production methods to ensure both quality and ethical integrity.
