What are scented candles?

Scented candles are candles that are embedded with fragrance oils or essential oils in order to give a pleasant scent when burned. They are created by combining wax, such as paraffin, soy, or beeswax, with fragrance or essential oils. The mixture is then poured into a container or moulded into a particular shape.

What are the differences between scented candles and taper or pillar candles?

Tapers and scented candles are both kinds of candles however, they differ in a number of ways:

  • Dimensions: Taper candles have a long, slender form that usually tapers from wide at the base to narrow at the top. Pillar candles are thicker and have a shape of a pillar. Scented candles can come in different sizes and shapes - from small and regular to quite big and more creative.
  • Perfume: While taper candles sometimes lack perfume, scented candles are made with the intention of emitting one when burned.
  • Burn time: Scented candles often last longer than taper candles since they are usually bigger and made of more wax.
  • Use: Scented candles can be used for relaxation, mood improvement, or to cover offensive odours. Taper candles are commonly used for formal occasions or as attractive centrepieces.
  • Use of a candlestick holder: When using scented candles you do not need additional candle holders. Scented candles are made using glass or porcelain containers that are usually quite decorative
  • Gift idea: Scented candles are great as gifts for all occasions. If you want to present somebody with taper or pillar candles, on the other hand, you should bring them a matching candle holder or a lantern as well.
