Fragrance
When thinking about enhancing your personal living space, whether you want to refresh the air, calm the senses or add that extra ambiance, most people will consider a scented candle, wax melts, plugins, reed or oil diffusers, or any other product that can release fragrance.
While the expectation that the fragrance released from any scented candle, or wax melt whether unlit (cold throw) or lit/melted (hot throw) can be high, the reality is that everyone's experience will vary due to many factors.
We mention this because we want our customers and those who are new to burning candles to get the best experience possible.
When selecting a scented candle, wax melt, or any other scented product consideration must be given to the fragrance itself. Some fragrances may or may not release as quickly or smell as strong as others, due to the type of fragrance, wax, temperature, air currents, size of candle, room size and most importantly our very own olfactory system (sense of smell).
One of the common misconceptions is that a scented candle or wax melt when burned/melted, should be noticed throughout the entire living space.
In order to get the most out of your fragrance experience, make sure that you have the correct number of candles or wax melts for the size of your living space. Smaller candle sizes may work in smaller rooms, however larger rooms may require multiple candles or much larger candles.
Another important consideration is the correct placement of your scented candles or wax melts as drafts, air vents, heating and air conditioning and general air currents can effect the ability to achieve maximum aroma not to mention overall safety.
