If the flame is subject to a breeze, it can produce sparks that can ignite nearby flammables. It is never safe to burn a candle while sleeping. Why is my wick drowning? The best way to ensure a wick never gets too short is to burn the candle long enough to form a uniform pool of melted wax (but no longer than four hours).

Also, do bath and body works candles self extinguish?

Do Bath and Body Works candles self-extinguish? The candles from BBW or any candle can be left for self-extinguishing, but my personal recommendation would be not to do so.

If you burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time, carbon will collect on the wick, and your wick will begin to "mushroom." This can cause the wick to become unstable, the flame to get too large, your candle to smoke, and soot to be released into the air and around your candle container.

Why are there 3 wick candles?

Three sources of ambient light instead of one. In addition to having the luxury of three ambient sources of light, 3 wick candles put off much more scent throw than smaller candles.

If you can no longer smell your candle, it does not mean the scent has disappeared; more than likely your brain had enough and switched off so you no longer notice the scent. After burning your candle for 2 hours, try stepping outside for about 15 minutes to clear your scent palate and come back in.
