Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are good retirement gift ideas that are not flowers?
A: Flowers say congratulations for four days and then need throwing out, which is why anything the person keeps beats them. A scented jar gets used for months and carries the message every time.
Q: Which scent works best for a man's living room?
A: Bamboo, cypress and cedar is the one that goes to men most often, because it is green and dry with nothing sweet in it. It suits a room with wood and leather in it.
Q: How many hours of burn time does this have?
A: 60+ hours in the 13.5 oz jar, which is a couple of months of evening burns. Weekend-only use stretches it across most of a year.
Q: How short should the wick be before lighting it?
A: An untrimmed wick grows a mushroom of carbon that makes the flame tall, smoky and uneven. A quick trim to 1/4" resets it every time.
Q: Can the jar be washed in a dishwasher once it is empty?
A: Hand washing is safer for the printed label, and warm water plus dish soap does the job in a minute. The glass itself is sturdy either way.
Q: Is this a suitable gift to post to somebody?
A: Glass travels perfectly well with a bit of padding, and there is nothing perishable in it to worry about. Keep it out of a hot car on the way.
