Basic Candlescents 2

Aromatherapy candles produce scents that will help you reach a heightened level of awareness, meditative, relaxed, less stressful or inspire you.

Candles used for aromatherapy are made with natural essential oils, where scented candles use natural and synthetic fragrances.

Aromatherapy candles can be set in molds, made of rolled beeswax or dropped into your unscented candle by placing two drops of essential oil near the candle's wick and light. As the candle burns it will diffuse the fragrance of your essential oil throughout the room.
