All it
takes is a match and a scented candle to
completely change the mood of a room.
The
fragrance of a scented candle can inspire
memory, poetry, insights, and relaxation,
depending on the fragrance. Many people love
scented candles for this reason. Relaxing in a
fragrant room can be like taking a vacation or
going on a magical time-traveling adventure to a
distant land. Others enjoy scented candles
because the fragrances bring back memories.
Considering the skyrocketing sales of scented
candles, people are having strong positive
reactions.
Candles come in many different styles, from
votive candles that can be purchased cheaply at
many local stores to more expensive decorative
pillar candles with delicate scents and complex
designs. All types of candles can be purchased
at low prices online.
Candle wax can ordinarily hold only about half
an ounce of fragrance oils per pound of wax.
Triple-scented candles, however, hold about an
ounce more, the maximum amount possible. If you
want an intense fragrance experience, you might
want to try a triple-scented candle.
Burning Scented Candles
High-quality scented candles are not cheap. To
get the most for your money, you’ll want to
maximize the life of your candle. Begin by
following the directions on how long to burn the
candle the first time. Generally, you burn a
candle one hour for each inch of its diameter.
For example, if the top of the candle measures
four inches across, you would burn it for a
minimum of four hours before extinguishing it.
This allows the melting pool to extend across
the entire surface of the candle, which has two
effects: the maximum amount of scent is diffused
into the air and the candle is consumed evenly.
You don’t end up with a hole burned down through
a column of wax.
It is also important to maintain the proper wick
length, which is usually about 1/4 of an inch.
Too short a wick is often extinguished by the
wax, while too long a wick can produce too large
a flame and uneven burning.
Keep your candle out of drafts. A draft can
cause one side of the candle to melt and run
down the side.
