Frequently Asked Questions about Scented Candles

Can scented candles cause headaches?

Yes. Some people are sensitive to certain fragrance compounds or soot particles, which can trigger headaches or migraines. Choosing natural scented candles made with essential oils and clean-burning wax can reduce this risk.

How do scented candles work?

When lit, heat melts the wax near the wick, releasing fragrance molecules into the air. These molecules are carried by the heat, creating the scent you smell.

How much candle scent to use?

For candle making, fragrance load is typically 6–10% of the wax weight, depending on the wax type and strength desired.

How to make custom scented candles?

Melt your chosen wax, add fragrance oil or essential oil at the correct temperature, stir thoroughly, pour into a container with a fixed wick, and let cure before burning.

How to make a scented candle in a jar?

Secure a wick in the jar, melt and scent your wax, pour carefully, and let set. Curing improves scent throw.

How to make clove scented candles?

Add clove essential oil or clove fragrance oil to melted wax at the recommended temperature. Whole cloves can be used decoratively but should not touch the wick.

How to make scented candles YouTube?

Search reputable candle-making channels for step-by-step tutorials — choose creators who list precise measurements and safety guidelines.

Where to get scented candles?

Buy online from trusted retailers like The Good Stuff, or locally from artisanal makers and homeware stores.

Can you use perfume to scent candles?

No. Perfume contains alcohol and additives that can be flammable or burn unevenly. Use candle-safe fragrance oils or essential oils instead.
