    Thai Lime & Mango Scented Candle (Seconds)

    These "Seconds" candles are poured with the exact same premium ingredients as our full-price range—100% soy wax, sustainable wooden wicks, and high-quality fragrance oils—but they have small cosmetic quirks that prevent us from selling them at full RRP.

    The scent is a mouth-watering cocktail of fresh, zesty Thai Lime and ripe, juicy Mango, balanced with a hint of peppery basil. It is incredibly uplifting, fresh, and vibrant. If you don't mind a slightly wonky label or a touch of frosting on the glass, this is the perfect way to fill your home with sunshine on a budget.

    🔍 Why is this a 'Second'?

    These candles burn perfectly and smell incredible, but they might have:

    • ❄️ Frosting: Natural white crystal patterns on the wax (a sign of pure soy wax!).
    • 📏 Fill Levels: The wax might be slightly higher or lower than our standard.
    • 🏷️ Label Issues: A bubble in the sticker or a slightly crooked placement.
    • 🫧 Surface Imperfections: A small air bubble or uneven top.

    🍋 The Scent Journey

    This fragrance is a zesty power-house:

    • 🍈 Top Notes: Kaffir Lime, Lemon Zest, Pineapple, and Apple.
      (The first hit: instant, sharp, mouth-watering citrus.)
    • 🌿 Mid Notes: Sweet Mango, Peach, and Thai Basil.
      (The heart: juicy tropical fruit balanced by a herbal twist.)
    • 🪵 Base Notes: Cedarwood and Vetiver.
      (The lingering trail: a subtle, woody warmth that grounds the fruitiness.)

    🕯️ Usage Guide: Wooden Wick Care

    Follow these tips to get the best crackle and burn time from your candle:

    🔥 The First Burn:
    Light the wick across the whole width. Let it burn for 2-3 hours until the wax melts to the edges. This prevents "tunnelling" and ensures you use all the wax.

    ✂️ The "Pinch":
    Before re-lighting, the wick must be short (3-4mm). Wait for the candle to cool, then simply pinch off the black charred wood with your fingers. This keeps the flame clean and steady.
