P.F. Candle Co. is an independent fragrance company from Los Angeles. Since 2008, it has created home fragrances with a keen sense of landscapes, memories, and unusual scent combinations. The candles are made from 100% soy wax and poured into the signature amber apothecary-style glasses.
Vanilla & Ghost Pepper is one of P.F. Candle Co.'s more distinctive seasonal creations. Pepper, cinnamon, and incense give the fragrance plenty of character, while vanilla and sandalwood soften it—warm, but not gourmand.
How to use
- Trim the wick to approx. 6 mm before each lighting.
- Allow the wax to melt to the edge of the glass during each burn whenever possible to prevent tunneling.
- Do not burn the candle for longer than four hours at a time.
- Place the candle on a heat-resistant surface and avoid drafts.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep it away from children and pets.
-
Discontinue use when only about 6 mm of wax remains in the glass.
