⚠️ Risk
During the combustion of the candle the flowers/leaves inside the candle caught fire with a very powerful flame (reached a height of approximately 10cm), resulting in the total blackening of the glass and the release of excessive soot. Judging from the flame intensity it is likely that burns may be caused to individuals that have not realised that the candle is being destroyed. Fire also can be generated in closed spaces of the candle, due to the powerful flame, especially if the candle is placed near flammable objects.
