Gamarra (Awaken) Candle
Awaken your senses with the invigorating aroma of our Gamarra Candle, named after the Wiradjuri word for "awaken." This candle is a tribute to the power of awakening and the transformative journey of self-discovery.
At the heart of this fragrant creation lies the soul-stirring scent of dark roasted coffee bean, infused with a touch of chocolate, but it's the top notes of buttercream and almond that add a layer of sweetness and indulgence, like the gentle caress of a morning breeze awakening the senses from a restful slumber. As you inhale deeply, allow yourself to be enveloped in the comforting embrace of these fragrant notes, reminding you of the nourishing power of connection and belonging.
As the flame flickers and casts a soft glow, the base notes of vanilla bean and sugar cane provide a grounding presence, like the sturdy roots of a tree firmly planted in the earth. Together, these notes create a harmonious blend.
But our Gamarra Candle is more than just a fragrance—it's a reminder to embrace the present moment, to listen to the whispers of the land, and to awaken to the beauty and possibility that surrounds us each day.
So light our Gamarra Candle and let its fragrance fill your home with warmth, comfort, and inspiration. It's a tribute to the power of awakening and the endless potential that lies within each of us.

Candle Care
Candle FAQ's
HOW LONG UNTIL I RECEIVE MY CANDLE?
A great candle experience begins with proper candle care and maintenance. Here are some important burning tips for enjoying your Little Black Duck candle:
1. Preventing memory rings.
Believe it or not, candles have a memory and the very first time you burn your new candle is the most important. Ensure you burn your candle long enough to completely melt the entire top surface of your candle. If the wax is not allowed to liquefy or to melt from edge to edge of the container, it will create a “memory ring,”. Once a candle has this “memory ring,” it will continue to tunnel and to burn that way for the life of the candle. And no one wants that!
2. Trim your wick.
Before lighting, always trim the wick to 6mm and remove any wick debris as this encourages an even burn.
3. Be safe.
Always burn your candle on a heat resistant surface, keep it out of drafts and NEVER leave it unattended while lit. Always burn candles well away from other heat sources, and anything flammable. Make sure burning candles are out of reach of children and pets.
4. Goodbye is the hardest word.
KNOW WHEN TO SAY GOODBYE. When only 1/2" of wax remains, it's time to let your candle go. Discontinue use of a candle when ½” of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. This will prevent possible heat damage to the counter/surface or container itself. The glass can get hot on the bottom as the flame nears the base of the jar and most of the wax has been consumed. By following this instruction, the glass will not get too hot.
5. Know your limit.
Candles should not be burned for more than four hours at a time. It is recommended that after burning for four hours, candles be extinguished, allowed to cool for two hours, and trimmed before relighting.
