Tradition Candle
Papier d'Arménie was born in Paris in 1885 from the experiments of a chemist and a scientist. Their idea came from a journey to Armenia, the highlands where the indigenous Armenian communities used benzoin resin – derived from the bark of trees – to purify the air in their homes.
This Tradition scented candle by Papier d'Arménie is faithful to the olfactory world of the brand's mythical incense papers. Its main notes are those of Balsamic and Vanilla.
Made from vegetable wax, this candle has a cotton wick that provides a burn time of more than 50 hours.
Tips on how to use
- Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch before lighting the candle.
- Let the candle burn until its surface is liquid. Extinguish the flame so that the hot wax diffuses the candle's scent.
- Always use a snuffer or dip the burning wick in wax to extinguish it, instead of blowing it out.
- Avoid inhaling the smoke directly.
- Ventilate the room after use.
- Do not leave burning product unattended or within reach of children.
The Armenian people, worldwide, are in a state of despair. 100 years after the Armenian Genocide, we saw that the loss of our people, homeland, and culture has not ended, most recently with the violent uprooting of Artsakh. We founded QAMI JAN in 2022 to uplift your spirit, to create a renewed sense of hope and resistance. We do this by focusing on our ancient culture and supporting local artisans. We are not relics. We are very much alive. And we will return.
Please join us in sharing the QAMI JAN spirit.
