After so many nights of watery scents, we’ve made a drastic switch to spice with the Altru Artistry Masala Chai candle. I love the warm spicy accents. It reminds me that cooler weather does exist and I’m looking forward to it. What I like most about this candle, is that it doesn’t go overly sweet into vanilla or amber to offset the spicy notes. Instead, I smell the creamy, frothy milk sitting atop the warm spices infused in a chai tea latte. The balance is delicate and seamless.
Manuela Testolini did an excellent job of paying homage to the richness of Moroccan art and culture with the Artistry candle. The hammered copper vessel add to the beauty of these soy blend candles. Proceeds from the Altru collection support the In a Perfect World Children’s Foundation. In a Perfect World inspires and empowers children to become compassionate, socially conscious and responsible leaders. They believe that when children are given the platform and experience to allow their dreams, ideas, and thoughts to be heard and shared, their innate desire for ‘a perfect world’ can and will lead to breakthrough measures that could significantly change the outlook of the future.
Tips for enjoying altru artistry masala chai
If you are enjoying altru artistry masala chai, a few simple habits help you get the most from it.
- Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch before every burn so the flame stays steady and clean.
- On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the container to help prevent tunneling.
- Keep the candle away from drafts, fans and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Stop burning when about half an inch of wax is left in the container, and let it cool fully before relighting.

A quick scent guide
Start small when you try something new. A single candle, a sample or a small bottle lets you live with a scent before you commit to more.
Fragrance families help you shop. Floral, fruity, woody, fresh and gourmand scents each have a mood, and knowing which you enjoy makes choosing much easier.
Give a scent time. The first impression is not always the whole story, because fragrance notes open up and settle as a candle warms or a diffuser works.
Think about where the scent will live. Bright citrus and green notes tend to suit kitchens and bathrooms, while warm spice, vanilla and wood often suit living rooms and bedrooms.
