Lightly Scented Candles

Lightly Scented Candles

While most want highly scented candles, did you know some scents are by nature stronger than others? Scents such as Cucumber Melon are not as strong as say, Blueberry Muffin. It doesn’t mean the Cucumber Melon candle has less scent than any other (actually, sometimes it’s more by volume), you just can’t smell it as well.

Light scents include:
- Cucumber Melon
- Green Tea & Cucumber
- Lily of the Valley
- Many other floral scents

There are several ways to get more out of your light scented candles. They are as follows:

1. Burn in Small Rooms
If you have a small room such as a bathroom, doorway, or something very small with little drafts, this would be the place to burn these candles.

2. Use Melt Warmers
Melt warmers can create a better scent throw for any candle. These can also be more cost effective if you burn candles often.

3. Eliminate Other Smells
If you are cooking or have other scents in the room, wait to burn the candle. You won’t be able to smell the candle as well if there are other scents present.

4. Only Burn Strong Scents
While it may be hard to decide which have strong scents and which do not, if you are unsure purchase only small sizes to try them out. Food scents, as well as blends are usually (not always) stronger than other scents.

A few stronger candle scents include:

Caribbean Morning
Watermelon
Floral Bouquet
Snickerdoodle Cookies
Banana Nut Bread
