We have noticed one thing after many gift orders. The giver usually worries about a great many things, while the receiver remembers the scent. So if you only have time to think about one thing, think about the scent first.
The simplest way is to picture where that person usually sits. Someone working beside a window all day will take easily to THONG REO, leaning towards pine, sweet orange and cedar, dry and airy. Someone often at home in the evening, in a house with much wood, usually likes RUNG GIA with cinnamon, black pepper and agarwood. Anyone who has just moved into an apartment with little furniture will find NUI NON, leaning towards bergamot, lavender and cedar, gives a cool and clear feeling.
For someone whose taste you are not sure of, we still suggest a light direction. APPLE with green apple or CHAMPACA with champaca flower are two scents comfortable for many people, and they rarely leave anyone having to put them away.
Choosing at the level you find right
A candle jar cinnamon cup of one hundred and twenty-five grams with a lid, burning about thirty-five to forty hours, is a neat gift that still has a story to tell, because the cup is made from a whole length of cinnamon bark and every jar has its own grain. The two hundred gram glass cup is light and clear, and once the wax is gone the receiver can reuse it, while the two hundred and twenty gram concrete cup is heavier in the hand and sits very firmly on a table.
If you would like the gift to be fuller, the one hundred millilitre diffuser lasts two to three months in a room, while the fifty millilitre bottle of perfume gives about six hundred sprays, so it travels with the receiver a very long time. For a shared gift from a group, we often suggest a set of two or a set of three cinnamon bark jars, and if you message us we can choose together to suit the occasion.
The wrapping and the letter
We have wooden boxes, paper boxes, silk cloth, canvas, jute and linen for wrapping, and we write letters by hand to the wording you send over. This part is a separate service, and we discuss it with you by message to suit the quantity and the style of wrapping.
As for timing, orders within the country arrive after two to five days depending on distance. Ordering about a week before the occasion gives the wrapping time to be done carefully.
A few questions you often send us
Which jar should I choose for a first gift
A cinnamon bark cup candle or a glass cup candle are both lovely choices for a first gift, and both can be wrapped with a handwritten letter.
Does ZUNGZA wrap gifts to order
Yes, with the boxes and cloths listed above, and we discuss it separately by message.
Is a candle a suitable gift for someone who has never used candles
It is; choose a light direction such as APPLE or CHAMPACA, and add a few lines about trimming the wick before lighting.
