Neutrals Soy Candle Reverie La Reina

Hand-poured Soy Candle Reverie 240g Burn time 45 h Olfactory Family: Wood Olfactory Notes: Cognac, Cinnamon, Tonka bean, Oak, Vanilla, Praline, Sandalwood, Almond Immerse yourself in quiet indulgence with Reverie — a hand-poured soy candle by La Reina that blends rich, enveloping notes of cognac, cinnamon, tonka bean, and sandalwood. Hints of vanilla, praline, and almond add a smooth, gourmand finish. Crafted with 100% natural soy wax, Reverie offers a clean, long-lasting burn and a scent that brings warmth and sophistication to any space. Establish Wax Memory: On the first burn, allow the candle to melt across the entire surface (2–3 hours). This sets the "wax memory," helping the candle burn evenly and preventing tunneling in future uses. Wick Trimming: Always trim the wick to 5mm before each use to avoid high flames, smoking, and soot. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Burn Duration: Limit each burn to 3–4 hours. Let the candle cool and solidify fully before relighting. Safe Use: Place on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, pets, and children. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguishing Flame: Use a candle snuffer or dip the wick into melted wax to extinguish cleanly and reduce smoke. Wax Level: Stop burning when about 10mm of wax remains to prevent overheating or container damage. Storage: Keep the candle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources to maintain its scent and shape.

Almond and oak trees, while both significant in their own right, offer distinct characteristics and benefits. Almond trees are primarily valued for their edible seeds, which are a rich source of nutrition. They require specific climatic conditions for optimal growth and are predominantly cultivated in regions with Mediterranean climates. The economic importance of almond trees is largely tied to the global demand for almonds as a healthy snack and ingredient in various food products. In contrast, oak trees are celebrated for their strength and longevity. They are found in a wide range of temperate regions and are known for their ecological importance. Oaks provide habitat and food for a diverse array of wildlife, and their wood is highly valued for its durability and aesthetic appeal. The cultural significance of oak trees is also noteworthy, with many societies venerating them as symbols of strength and wisdom. While almond and oak trees serve different purposes, they both contribute to the biodiversity and health of their respective ecosystems. The comparison between these two tree species highlights the diverse roles that plants play in nature and the importance of preserving their habitats for future generations.
