How to Best Enjoy Your Kanza Candle

For an optimal olfactory experience and a longer lifespan for your Kanza Pina Colada candle:

1. During the first use, let the candle burn until the entire surface is liquid (about 2 to 3 hours). This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn in subsequent uses.
2. Trim the wick slightly before each lighting (about 0.2 inches or 0.5 cm) to avoid a flame that is too high and black smoke.
3. Never leave your candle burning unattended and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
4. Place the candle on a stable and heat-resistant surface.
5. Enjoy this moment of fragrant well-being!

An Inspiring Story Behind This Candle

The name of our candle was not chosen at random. Kanza is a powerful tribute to Sophie Kanza, the first woman to be appointed minister in the Democratic Republic of Congo. A brilliant sociologist and the first Congolese woman to earn a university degree, she broke every barrier placed before her — including earning a PhD from Harvard at a time when women, especially African women, were rarely seen in such roles.

Far beyond her political title as Minister of Social Affairs in 1966, Sophie Kanza was a trailblazer for gender equality, education, and dignity for all. She stood as a symbol of quiet strength, using her voice to advocate for women’s rights and the future of young African girls. After her time in government, she continued her mission through her work at the United Nations, leaving a legacy of compassion, intelligence, and courage.

By naming this candle Kanza, LaQuiins Scentsation celebrates not only an extraordinary woman in African history, but also invites you to light a flame of resilience and ambition. Just like Sophie’s life — rooted in justice, purpose, and grace — this candle is more than a scent; it’s a reminder of what is possible when women rise.
