Bougie Apothicaire Petite - Petits Papiers

Figue Noire is designed to evoke the atmosphere of a wild fig tree at dusk. It offers a sophisticated, earthy profile that balances the sweetness of ripe fruit with the green, woody notes of the tree itself.

The vegetal wax blend is chosen for its clean-burning properties and its ability to hold a high concentration of fragrance. It provides a more sustainable alternative to paraffin while ensuring an even, consistent scent throw throughout the life of the candle.

To maintain a clean burn and prevent soot, trim the wick to about 5mm before each use. This helps regulate the flame size and ensures the candle burns evenly without tunneling.

With a burn time of over 65 hours and a robust scent profile, this candle is well-suited for medium-sized living spaces. For very large, open-concept rooms, you may find the fragrance is subtle rather than overwhelming.

Yes, the candle is housed in a durable, elegant vessel that reflects the artisanal quality of the brand. Once the wax is fully consumed, the container can be cleaned and repurposed for storage or decor.
