Frequently asked questions about essential oils for candles

Can essential oils be used to make candles?

Yes, although bear in mind that essential oils are less heat-resistant than synthetic fragrances. They work well in natural candles, especially when used in the right proportions.

How much essential oil should I add to a candle?

Between 3% and 6% of the wax weight is normally recommended. Adding more does not always improve the scent and can affect how the candle burns.

What is the difference between essential oils and candle fragrance oils?

Essential oils are natural in origin and offer softer, more authentic scents. Candle fragrance oils are formulated specifically for candles and usually provide greater intensity and stability when burning.

Which essential oils are best for candles?

The most popular are lavender, citrus (lemon, orange, mandarin), cinnamon and herbs such as spearmint. The choice depends on the kind of experience you want to create: relaxing, fresh, intense or decorative.

Can essential oils be blended?

Yes, it is common to combine several essential oils to create bespoke scents. It is important to keep the proportions balanced so that one scent does not overpower the others.

Do they work well with all waxes?

They work best with plant-based waxes such as soy, coconut or rapeseed wax. In some cases, you may need to adjust the amount or carry out tests to achieve a good scent throw.
