Frequently Asked Questions

All of our fragrances are crafted as Extrait de Parfum. With up to 30% aromatic oils, they’re bold, long-wearing, and designed to linger on skin. We chose this format because it allows each scent to unfold slowly and stay closer to the skin—more intimate, more atmospheric, and more personal.

Expect up to 8 hours of wear. Our extraits evolve over time—starting bold and settling into a softer, long-lasting finish. Longevity varies depending on your skin type, climate, and application.

Spray once or twice on pulse points like your neck, wrists, or inner elbows. Moisturized skin helps hold scent longer. No need to rub, let the perfume unfold naturally.

Orchid Lane scents are designed to be unisex, rooted in feeling, memory, and atmosphere. Wear what resonates with you. While some scents may lean slightly more traditionally feminine or masculine, they’re meant for anyone. 

Store your bottle in a cool, dark and dry place, away from heat, sunlight, and humidity. This helps maintain the scent’s balance and longevity.

Yes, all Orchid Lane fragrances are vegan and cruelty-free. We never use animal-derived ingredients or test on animals and are formulated without phthalates, parabens, or other unnecessary fillers.

We use high-quality, carefully selected ingredients in every formula. If you have sensitive skin or known allergies, we recommend doing a patch test before full use.

Our 9.5 oz candles burn for up to 55 hours with proper care.

1.Trim the wick to ¼″ before each burn 2. Allow a full melt pool on the first burn (2–3 hours) 3. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time 4. Stop use when ½″ of wax remains at the bottom

Wrap foil around the rim of the candle, leaving an opening in the center, and let it burn for 1–2 hours. This helps even out the wax pool.

Yes — all Orchid Lane candles are eco-friendly. They’re made with a natural coconut apricot wax blend that is biodegradable, sustainable, and clean-burning. We use cotton wicks, phthalate-free fragrances, and recyclable packaging, so each candle is designed to be as kind to the environment as it is beautiful in your space.

The first burn sets the “memory” of the candle. Let it burn long enough (about 2–3 hours) for the melted wax to reach the edges of the jar. This prevents tunneling and helps your candle burn evenly for the rest of its life.
