| Who isn’t marveled by candle scents? Nothing says cozy like reading a good book by the glow of a homemade scented candle. If you look at it this way, scented candles are one of life’s little luxuries and help many of us feel calm and relaxed. Maybe it’s in our genetic code from lighting fires to keep harm away at night or lighting candles to chase the dark away and extend our days. Either way, you look at it, candlelight has been a mainstay in human history and our lives wouldn’t be the same without it. In modern times candle fragrance has become the most defining characteristic of a candle. If you are giving a candle as a gift or selling candles, the first thing anyone does is smell the candle before it’s ever been lit. And if they can’t smell anything or it’s a really weak scent, they are likely going to assume it won’t smell any differently when lit (even if that’s not true). But what are the factors of a great scented candle? First of all, throw. This candle fragrance term describes the strength of fragrance that is emitted from a candle when it is burning. A hot throw is the part of a candle that is enjoyed the most. Striking a match to light a candle that will fill your home with moody musks, rich spices, or fresh florals can lift your mood and truly transport your senses. So, it’s important to get this candle making step right. Another factor is sweating which is characterised by little beads or sometimes pools of fragrance gathering on the top of a container candle or seeping out the sides of a pillar candle. There are many reasons candle sweating can occur, but experts claim it has a lot to do with the fragrance load. The fragrance load of a candle correlates to the percentage of fragrance used in candle making. It will determine the scent throw of the candle which includes the cold and hot throw. But how much fragrance should you add to a homemade scented candle? 6% is the most common fragrance load. Although some waxes can hold up to 12%. However, there are several things to keep in mind when you want to make scented candles at home and the most important one is to make sure that you enjoy the smell. All in all, candle making is a joyful craft not only for personal use but also for little gifts of love. If you haven’t tried it yet, start today! |
