Just a trim.
Can we put our love for these scissors into words? Well, we can try. They’re tailor-made for wick-trimming, so they’re helping us keep candle smoke and soot at bay. Then there’s that design—long enough to reach into our deepest jars, with round blades that’ll catch the trimmings before they drop onto the wax. In that sleek, matte black finish, they’re the kind of thing you won’t mind leaving out. Snag yours with the scented candle that strikes your fancy: Dusk, Golden Hour, or Moonrise.

P.F. Candle Co.
Los Angeles, CA
P.F. Candle Co. believes that fragrance is an extension of home design, and we’re right there with them. Their candles are made with nothing but domestically grown soy wax—yep, no phthalates here. It all happens under one roof in Southern California (no wonder their scents have us dreaming of sunny days).

If you love candles, you need this!
I use these everyday! No mess either! It keeps the wick nice and short and it doesn't smoke anymore. And they're very smart looking, very arts& crafts style. I haven't used the candle yet but it smells great!

Functional and Good-Looking
Didn’t really need the candle but the trimmers were out of stock on their own so I splurged. Scent is pretty inoffensive, thank goodness! As for the trimmers, they’d make a great gift. I like that they’re long enough to use with candles that have burned down a bit in their containers. They’ve got a nice weight to them. Would look pretty just sitting out on a coffee table or in a bathroom.

Lovely
Nice heft in my hand, does the job smoothly, and a lovely accessory to leave out. Very happy with the purchase.
