Place your empty candle jar in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, then remove the remaining wax. Use a paper towel to clean out the smaller pieces of wax. Take the refill from its packaging and place it into the cleaned jar. It's now ready for use. Ensure you let the candle burn for 3-4 hours the first time to melt the top layer for an even burn. The wooden wick may take a few minutes of lighting to catch fire and burn on its own. Always trim the the wick before each use.
Reflecting on her craft, Haohua emphasizes that perfume creation is the perfect blend of art and technology. She regards it as a form of art on par with the eight Beaux-arts—drawing, sculpture, representative painting, cinema, pantomime, literature, and music. However, she believes that technology plays a crucial role in elevating this art form to new heights. It enhances the strength, longevity, and development of fragrances, while also enabling the use of cleaner, greener ingredients for more sustainable perfumes, a consideration she values deeply amidst the environmental challenges of the 21st century.
