A natural soy candle in basil, frankincense and amber, hand poured in Sydney. At 510g with a 60 hour burn time this is a serious candle rather than a token one, and 11:11 is the scent House of Nunu describe as inspiring, enchanting and energising.
Key Features
- 510g (18oz). With a 60 hour burn time.
- Natural soy wax base. Not paraffin.
- Handmade in Sydney, Australia. Hand poured.
- Basil, frankincense and amber. The 11:11 blend.
Pūrē Standard
- Soy rather than paraffin. Paraffin is a petroleum by-product, and it is what leaves the black soot mark above a burning candle. Soy burns cooler and cleaner.
- 60 hours is the number that matters. A cheap candle burns fast because the wax pool is shallow and the wick is oversized. At 510g this one lasts, which is the number worth comparing.
- Hand poured in Sydney. Not imported and relabelled.
- Where we would like more. Notes like amber almost always indicate a fragrance oil accord rather than a single essential oil, and House of Nunu do not publish the fragrance composition. If you only burn pure essential oil candles, this is not one.

How to Use
- Trim the wick to about 5mm. Before each burn. This is what stops the smoking and the black rim.
- On the first burn, go to the edge. Let the wax pool reach the edge of the vessel so it does not tunnel.
Safety
- Never leave a burning candle unattended. Not for a moment.
- Keep clear of hazards. Children, pets, curtains and draughts.
- Burn on a heat-resistant surface. And stop when about 10mm of wax remains.
