Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a good gift for somebody handing over a difficult job?
A: Aim at the relief rather than the achievement, because relief is what they are actually feeling on the last day. A joke about it being somebody else's turn lands perfectly.
Q: Is a green woody scent unusual for a candle?
A: It is less common than vanilla or citrus and much easier to live with day to day, which is why people who claim to dislike candles often like this one. Bamboo and cedar read as air rather than perfume.
Q: Can a candle be given to somebody who says they hate scented things?
A: A light green scent is the one to try, and an unlit jar still looks good on a shelf if they never light it. Heavy sweet scents are what people usually mean by hating candles.
Q: Is this suitable for a shared office kitchen?
A: Unlit it is fine anywhere, and most workplaces do not allow an open flame in a shared kitchen. Check before lighting rather than after.
Q: How long before a candle should be replaced once it is opened?
A: There is no deadline — soy holds fragrance for years if it is kept cool and out of the sun. A jar half burned last winter is fine to light again.
Q: What is the safest surface to stand a candle on?
A: Something hard and heat tolerant, clear of paper, curtains and anything overhanging. The base of the glass does get warm during a long burn.
