Why are wooden wicks better than cotton wicks?
Wooden wicks are a much more sustainable option than cotton wicks. Cotton required a large amount of water during production; whereas one tree can produce thousands of wicks. Nola source their wicks from a FSC (Forest Safe Certified) supplier, meaning they plant more trees than they cut down. Wooden wicks also burn cleaner, give off a better scent throw and create a cozy ambiance through the crackle sound they give off.
I've never used a wooden wick candle before. What do I need to know?
Trimming your wick is ESSENTIAL. Imagine trying to light a fire in your fireplace with charred pieces of wood - you would struggle. Don't worry though - trimming your wick is easy! All you need to do is crack away the charred wood (just pinch it away with your fingers!) in between burns. Wooden wicks need to be trimmed shorter than cotton wicks so don't worry if the wick seems short.
Sandalwood and Almond - A delicious escape to the East, with notes of sandalwood and cedar balancing oriental spice, sweetness and musk. Lime, grapefruit & bergamot introduce this bold scent, while patchouli & marshmallow simmer through the headier cedar, amber, vanilla and sandalwood notes. Wonderfully aromatic & tastefully intoxicating.
Dark Raspberry - This gently sweet aromatic delight will have you basking in a deep fruity serenity. A complex blend to create a familiar and yet foreign experience.
Brown Sugar and Tonka - This sweet vanilla scent is intoxicating like no other! A careful balance of rich warmth magnifies the sweeter notes and takes the senses on a journey.
French Pear - This rich, juicy scent captures the true essence of pears. Green apple, white lily and osmanthus mingle with midnight jasmine and nashi pear, which simmer to a baser of tonic, davana, cinnamon, whipped cream, vanilla and thistle honey. Gently complex and sweetly endearing.
Bouquet - Let spring envelop your room with this delicately floral scent. Bergamot and lemon peel bind to magnify white rose and lily, gently edged with cedar and musk. A florists heaven!
Lily and Cypress - For those who want a natural floral scent - this one is for you! The balance between cypress pine & lily creates an authentically natural smell. Notes of hinoki & balsam fir transport you to nature; while lily introduces a natural sweetness that is irresistible. Feels like stumbling onto a meadow of flowers while on a hike.
