A. Why scented candle diy's don't smell good
The scent of scented candles can purify the air and improve the indoor air environment, many friends will add their favorite essential oils when making homemade scented candles, and some people respond to their own handmade DIY scented candles are not as fragrant as those bought, so why are homemade scented candles not fragrant?
The scent of a scented candle is accomplished by adding fragrance or essential oils to the melted wax solution. If the scent produced is insufficient, there are several possible reasons for this.
1, the choice is a light fragrance of plant essential oils, natural plant essential oils to do the scent of the aromatherapy candle itself will be lighter, if you like the taste of some strong, you can consider buying candles dedicated to essential oils.
2, add the proportion of essential oils is not enough, the general proportion of essential oils should be in about 5% to be more obvious, but do not add too much, do not exceed 10%.
3, add essential oils at the wrong time, after the candle has melted, add essential oils to cool down to below 70°C before adding, because many essential oils do not tolerate high temperatures and are easily decomposed by heat, the fragrance will also be affected by this.
4, the volatile speed of essential oils and the human sensory organs of the successive sensitivity differences, the same essential oil successive fragrance is also different.
These are the reasons why homemade scented candles don't smell good. Just be careful to adjust the right ratio and choose the right fragrance or essential oil.
Second, diy scented candles can add perfume
Handmade diy homemade scented candles are usually added to essential oils or daily fragrances when the candle is melted, and some friends have asked if they can add perfume to homemade scented candles.
Although perfume also has a fragrance, but unlike essential oils and fragrances, perfume added to wax oil will cause the fragrance in the perfume to come out because of the water-oil insoluble, if you use perfume to make your own scented candles, then the candles made will be no different from ordinary candles.
