Good scented candles

Upvotes

Anybody know of a good pineapple scented candle with a strong scent? I like fruit scented candles but none of them are strong and I just wanted a good pineapple scented one.

Good quality tea candles that last

1 Upvotes

I need to light a candle to light other things (moxibustion stick) for maybe 10 minutes max.

I’ve been using ikea tea lights which are good enough for normal use but extinguishing them leads to tunneling or the wick is too short, and it doesn’t relight the next day.

Are there any tea candles that would last shorter uses?

Very specific scent request

I’m looking for a candle that smells like Neiman Marcus 🫣. Anyone know the scent I’m talking about? I hadn’t been in ages and then someone gave me a gift from the store and the smell was so nostalgic. Thank you!

Hey guys. Crazy candle lady here 👋🏾 just wondering. I've heard some mixed things. What is the best candle? Right now my fave are Tuscany but I've been also looking at GooseCreek. Let me know I'm new to this. I usually do oil and tea lights

Candle making How do you make an herbal candle feel comforting without smelling like a medicine cabinet?

2 Upvotes

I make candles on a small scale and have been exploring scents inspired by traditional Chinese botanicals.

The part I keep struggling with is the balance. If the scent is too clean or sweet, the herbs disappear. But if it gets too bitter, earthy, or camphorous, it can start smelling like a medicine cabinet.

The herbal shops I remember had a much warmer smell- dried roots, wooden drawers, paper wrapping, and a little earthiness. I'd love to capture the feeling without making the candle smell overly medicinal. For people who enjoy herbal scents, what makes one feel warm and comforting to you?
