The scent profile — Pitta dosha
This Ayurvedic scented candle offers a fragrance profile aligned with the Pitta dosha: cool aqua notes paired with the warm, soothing fragrance of agarwood oil from Assam. You can enjoy both a pleasant mood and a carefully composed aroma, blended by the Indian maker from natural essential oils. The scent is never intrusive: it appears softly at first, then slowly fills the room as the candle warms.
What it is made of and how it burns
The wax base is a blend of luxurious coconut butter and soy wax, hand-poured with a cotton wick. This combination produces less smoke and soot than traditional paraffin and burns with an even flame. Burn time is about 55 hours if you follow the usage tips. A single wick gives a calmer, more focused flame, making it ideal for the bedroom or a smaller space.
What the Pitta dosha matching means
People with a Pitta constitution are usually logical and focused, typically of average height and muscular build. They may sometimes experience flashes of anger and find it hard to relax. According to Ayurvedic tradition this fragrance composition particularly suits this type — but the choice is not a medical diagnosis: you can simply pick it because you enjoy the aroma. Many people give it as a gift to a friend or family member who recognises their own nature in the description.
How to use it wisely and safely
Before every lighting, trim the wick to about 5 millimetres — this means less soot and a cleaner wax burn. Each time, allow the candle to melt across its full diameter before extinguishing: roughly one hour of burning per 2 centimetres of diameter. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time and leave about 1 centimetre of wax at the bottom of the jar. Always place it on a heat-resistant, flat surface, away from children, pets and flammable materials. This way you can safely enjoy the full burn time.
What is in the package and where it comes from
The candle arrives in a glass jar, in a coloured cardboard tube with a decorative tassel, so it makes a fine gift. The total package weighs about 515 g. Country of origin: India. Instructions are printed in several languages. As this is an open flame, never leave the candle unattended while burning and avoid drafts or nearby flammable textiles.
