DESCRIPTION
Composed by François Demachy, Perfumer-Creator for the House of Dior, the Eden-Roc scented candle is a celebration of the iconic hotel on the French Riviera.
The Eden-Roc scented candle is the olfactory interpretation of the sun-bathed cape dotted with pines from the south of France and lined with white rock cliffs overlooking the waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
This candle brings together two forms of the art of living à la française: that of the Parisian elegance from Maison Christian Dior, and the sunlit luxury of the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc.
Light the Eden-Roc scented candle and immerse your interior with its woody and salty notes, the scented expression of tranquility that reigns over this slice of heaven.
THE ART OF CANDLE BURNING
Because the most beautiful things deserve the greatest care, discover the art of candle burning by La Collection Privée Christian Dior to elevate your fragrance experience.
Before Use
Place your candle in a stable, upright position to ensure the wax melts evenly. We recommend using an appropriate, heat-resistant base that can withstand hot wax. The La Collection Privée Christian Dior candle stand showcases your candle and protects fragile surfaces such as glass, wood or marble. Before each use, remember to trim the wick of your candle to avoid black smoke. Ideally, the wick should be no longer than 5mm (1/4").
Burn Time
When using for the first time, be sure to let the candle burn until the entire surface liquid. This prevents tunneling and allows the wax to burn evenly. For each use, burn between 2 to 3 hours at a time to fully release the candle's scent and create the ideal fragrant ambiance. Do not leave the candle burning for longer than the recommended time to prevent the ceramic jar from overheating. To avoid blackening of the enamel, make sure the wick is centered in the candle. If it shifts, extinguish the flame and gently straighten thee wick while the wax is still liquid. The base of the ceramic jar should always contain a small amount of wax. Burning the candle until the wax is completely consumed can damage the jar.
Extinguishing Your Candle
Extinguishing your candle must be done with care. We recommend using the La Collection Privée Christian Dior candle snuffer to extinguish the flame and thus reduce the emission of smoke.
After Use
To prolong the life of your candle, cover it with a lid between uses. The La Collection Privée Christian Dior lid is the ideal way to preserve your candle's scent and protect the wax from dust. The La Collection Privée Christian Dior ceramic jar has an enamel interior for easy cleaning should it start to blacken. Simply wipe the enamel with a soft cloth to restore it to its original luster.

A field of creation in their own right, these fragrances are conceived as singular worlds so that each candle leaves a unique trail, an indulgent and sophisticated atmosphere that lasts up to 60 hours.
The Wax
Crafted in keeping with waxmaking tradition, La Collection Privée Christian Dior candles are made using the highest quality of wax. The unique,* mineral wax-based composition melts quickly to release its subtle accords almost instantaneously.
The Wick
Selecting the right wick is critical to achieve optimal burning, which is why La Collection Privée Christian Dior uses braided cotton wicks.
The Ceramic Jar
La Collection Privée Christian Dior candles are housed in a ceramic jar with an enamel interior in a subtle shade of Dior's iconic grey. This inner coating creates a barrier between the wax and the ceramic jar.
