Quick answer
If you crave a deep, woody warmth, choose Candle No.12 Bousval. For a lighter, spicier warmth with a hint of floral, Candle No.10 Aboukir is your match.
Scent profiles: woody depth vs. spicy lift
No.12 Bousval leans into a rich, woody character, making it ideal for grounding a space with a sense of quiet luxury. No.10 Aboukir offers a spicier, more complex warmth that feels inviting without being heavy.
Both candles are designed for a clean, even burn, but their different scent personalities suit different moods and room sizes.
Trade-offs to help you decide
- Scent weight: No.12 Bousval is heavier and woodier, filling a room with a dense, enveloping warmth. No.10 Aboukir is lighter and spicier, offering a more subtle, layered fragrance.
- Best setting: Bousval suits larger living areas or cozy evenings when you want a statement scent. Aboukir works beautifully in bedrooms or smaller spaces where a softer presence is preferred.
- Burn care: Both candles require the same care: a full melt pool on the first burn, wick trimming to ¼ inch, and limiting burns to 3 hours. This ensures even burning and maximum lifespan. Always follow the burn care instructions for the best experience with either candle.
