Discovery Candle Set of 4
Specifications
Four candles, given together: Soothe, Happy, New Romantic and Moonlight Bloom. Soothe began with the Cotswolds, a lavender field at dusk. Happy in the Sicilian orange groves at golden hour. New Romantic in Jaipur, the pink city turning rose. Moonlight Bloom on a terrace in Zakynthos at midnight, the jasmine in full bloom. Frosted white glass. Soy wax. Cotton wicks. In two sizes: the 75g mini and the 270g. Hand-poured on Connaught Street.
One for the morning, one to end the day, one for the slow evening, one for after dark.
Poured at Connaught Street. One batch at a time.
Every candle is hand-poured in small batches at our London workshop. Emily blends every scent and makes each batch by hand. The candles are then poured, labelled and finished by hand.
How to burn Discovery Candle Set of 4.
A candle is only as good as the way it's burned. Four steps, the same for every Yougi vessel.
-
Trim the wick.
Before every burn, trim to a centimetre. A shorter wick prevents soot and smoke, and the flame runs clean.
-
Let the wax pool.
On the first burn, let the wax reach the edge of the vessel before you put it out. Two to four hours. This prevents tunnelling and protects your hours of burn.
-
Burn in sessions.
Two to four hours at a time. Let it rest between burns: the scent needs the pause.
-
Retire gracefully.
When the wax falls below a centimetre, stop burning. Send us the empty vessel and we'll refill it for thirty percent less than a new candle.
The blend, in its other forms.
The same scent where it is made, and the nearest to it where it is not.
