Q: Should you cut the wick before burning candle

submitted by Debbie - 5 months ago
  • A: Hello. Thank you for your question about our Ocean Air Original Large Jar Candle! Yes, we recommend trimming the wick to about 1/8 inch before each burn. This helps ensure a clean, even burn and prevents issues like smoking or soot. For best results, allow the wax to melt across the entire surface on your first burn to help the candle maintain an even pool each time. We hope you enjoy the refreshing scent of Ocean Air! If you have anymore questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 8pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Yankeecandle® Consumer Care

    Scent

    Changed the scent. It smells like Glade air freshener now.
    1 reply from Yankeecandle Consumer Care team - 10 days ago
    Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the Clean Cotton® Original Large Jar Candle. We’re really sorry to hear that the scent didn’t meet your expectations. Clean Cotton® is designed to evoke the fresh, airy scent of sun-dried laundry with notes of white flowers, green accords, and a hint of lemon. That said, we understand that fragrance is very personal, and we’re disappointed to hear it came across as more like an air freshener than the soft, natural freshness you were hoping for. We haven’t intentionally altered the fragrance profile, but factors like wax composition, burn conditions, or even storage can sometimes impact how a scent is perceived. Your feedback is important, and we’ll be sure to share it with our product team for review. If you need our help, please contact our Consumer Care team, or you can also check at the bottom of our official website under customer service to contact us via email. We are looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you! Yankee Candle Consumer Care
