Clare` Mont Candles FAQs
What inspired the creation of Clare` Mont Candles?
Clare` Mont Candles was inspired by memories of my mother tending flowers in our childhood garden, especially my favorite flower, the gardenia. Fast forward to today, where my passion for home fragrance has evolved—particularly in fragranced candles. After months of research and experimenting with various scent blends, this journey led to creating luxurious, handcrafted candles.
Where are your candles made?
Our candles are proudly handcrafted in the UK in small batches in our small studio, ensuring attention to detail and quality control at every stage.
What kind of wax do you use?
We use 100% natural soy wax, which is eco-friendly, sustainable, and provides a clean, long-lasting burn.

Do you use essential oils in your candles?
Some of our candles incorporate essential oils, though many fragrances are crafted using a mix of premium fragrance oils to achieve a wider variety of scents.
Why do you use soy wax instead of other waxes?
Soy wax is renewable, biodegradable, and burns cleaner and longer than many other waxes, which aligns with our quest to be ever more eco-friendly.

We provide detailed care instructions, like trimming wicks before each burn and keeping the wax free of debris, to ensure the best candle experience.
How long do your candles typically burn?
Our candles offer an extended burn time, with small candles lasting 20–30 hours and larger ones reaching up to 50–60 hours.
Do you offer fragrance testers?
