Benefits of scented candles
Scented candles set the mood for relaxing after work, hosting guests or winding down before bed. The soft light and fragrance make a space feel calmer and more welcoming, and a beautiful candle doubles as décor. They also make an easy, thoughtful gift.
How to use scented candles properly
- First burn: let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the jar, usually 2 to 3 hours, to prevent tunnelling.
- Trim the wick to about 5mm before every burn, for a clean, steady flame with less soot.
- Burn for up to 4 hours at a time, then let the candle cool.
- Stay safe: never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it away from curtains, drafts, children and pets, and burn it in a ventilated room.
Scented candles or diffusers?
Candles give you fragrance plus ambience, but only while they’re lit. For constant, flame-free scent, try our reed diffusers, which fragrance a room for months, or mist a room spray for an instant refresh. Many people use all three.

Frequently asked questions
How long do scented candles last?
It depends on the candle’s size and how you burn it. Trimming the wick and burning for no more than 4 hours at a time helps a candle burn evenly and last much longer.
Are scented candles safe?
Burned properly, yes. Keep the room ventilated, trim the wick to reduce soot, and never leave a candle unattended. If you or someone at home has asthma or is sensitive to smoke, a flame-free reed diffuser is a gentler way to scent a room.
What are the benefits of scented candles?
They create a calm, welcoming atmosphere, help you unwind, make your home smell beautiful for guests and add soft light and style to a room.
How do I use a scented candle for the first time?
Let the first burn last until the wax melts all the way to the edge of the jar, usually 2 to 3 hours. This sets the candle’s “memory” and stops it tunnelling on later burns.
Should I choose scented candles or diffusers?
Choose candles for ambience and occasional use, and diffusers for steady, all-day scent without a flame. They work well together.
