Perfume is the most popular and most used fragrance in the world. It can be associated with a wide range of ingredients to create different scents. Thus, when it comes to making your own scented candles, you have the freedom to choose from each fragrance, smell, perfume and essential oil that exists.

Speaking of your perfumes, know that you can mainly use two types of perfumes: Essential oils and aromatic essences.

The fundamental difference between the two is simple: where aromatic essence is a simple scented scent, essential oil brings scents linked to the plant used, such as antibacterial, relaxing or sanitizing properties.)

So do not hesitate to inquire to find the essential oils perfect to have a specific effect! The simplest, like an apple cinnamon mixture to create a Christmas atmosphere, with more utilitarian scents like lemongrass to push mosquitoes.


Finally, level quantity, the percentage of essential oils or aromatic petrol must be quite low, around 5% of the total volume.

If you use 250 ml of wax, you will only need 6 or 7 drops of essential oil. If you use a closer volume of the 500 ml, you will need around 10 or 11 drops in total.

A few drops are enough, it's up to you to adapt according to your tastes and the amount of wax you use for your DIY candle!
