Candles & Fragrance

There are a few different styles of candles that you might come across. The most common types include pillar candles, taper candles, and votives. Pillar candles are tall and cylindrical, and they usually have a long wick that burns down the middle of the candle. They're perfect for filling up large spaces with light, and they tend to last for a long time. Taper candles are far more slender than pillar candles, and they burn faster. They're typically used to create a soft, romantic glow in smaller spaces. Votive candles are small and circular, with a short wick that burns down the middle. They're perfect for placing on tables or in windowsills.

A good fragrance can be more than just pleasant to smell. For example, aromatherapy is the use of scents to improve mood, enhance relaxation, and soothe pain. An aromatherapy diffuser is often used before bedtime to induce sleep by stimulating the limbic system with a pleasant scent. Additionally, diffusers can be used during other stressful events like studying or intense work projects. They are intended to soothe the mind and body, relax the individual, and reduce tension headaches caused by stress.

If candles aren’t your style, then think about buying from our selection of wax warmers. A wax warmer is a device used to heat wax to a melting point. Heated wax is often used to give a room an uplifting scent. Furthermore, the good news is that you don't have to choose between imbuing a room with a pleasant fragrance and promoting safety. Wax burners have combined both aspects into one product. Therefore, you can safely use these devices around your home without the risk of unintentional fire or the chance of unwanted fumes filling the air. Many people even find the scent more agreeable and less intense than when burning candles.

If the idea of starting a fire with a lit candle gives you more than a little trepidation, we have a great alternative to ease your worried mind. The safe alternative is using flameless candles, and some people absolutely love them. You don't have to worry about the flame going out, and you can also use them without having to be concerned about accidentally starting a fire. Plus, they come in all sorts of different colors and fragrances. Finally, if longevity is what you're after, this type of candle lasts a lot longer than a typical wax candle does.
