Carrière Frères
Tomato Scented Candle 185g
Editor's Notes
Carrière Frères' Tomato scented candle is inspired by the plant's fresh and green fragrant oil, which fascinated botanists and explorers in the 18th century.
Crafted in Cire Trudon's lauded factory, Carrière Frères candles are a token of history, from the traditional manufacturing techniques used to make them to the individual ancient botanicals on which each scent is based. A berry from the Solanacae family, the tomato is one of the world's best loved fruits - with a sweet and fleshy centre that has made it a staple of the international diet. First grown in South America, its name is derived from the Inca 'tomalt'. For this candle, the plant's oil is distilled into a high quality wax blend which, when melted, releases a poetic language exclusively spoken by nature.

HOW TO USE
Always burn the candle until the entire surface liquifies - but for no more than 2 hours at a time - and allow it to solidify before re-lighting. Keep the wick trimmed to 0.5cm at all times to avoid any black smoke. If needed, gently re-position the wick while the wax is still molten. Discard the candle when only 0.5cm of wax remains.
