BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Fragrance What Candles do you Burn?

Hello Everyone,
I only burn 100% soy wax candles in my home. I do sell handpoured soy candles made by me on my website. They burn 50% longer and don't produce soot like paraffin wax. They are all natural unlike paraffin and are better for the environment. My aromatherapy candle line includes these scents: Citrus awakening,Mighty Mint,Sweet Dreams,Warm Lavender,Patchouli woods, and Hollyrose Aromatherapy blend.
Take a look at my website today.
Thanks,
Holly,Owner

I love the Votivo Red Currant. So delicious!!! In the wintertimne, I also burn Feu de Bois by Dyptique for that awesome firewood smell...

Oh my God. Has anyone ever tried "Tuberose" scent candles made by Trapp? I am totally addicted to them. They say there is a whole bottle of perfume in every candle. The scent fills up the whole house.

I adore orange/vanilla scented candles...they smell like an Orange Julius!Also, of course anything vanilla/cookie/cake scented.

The BF is nuts about some of Yankee Candles scents - one is a Halloween Patchouli sort of scent(don't know the name but he bought enough last season to still be burning them now - giggle), an orange/russet-colored Thanksgiving-ish pumpkin-ey scent and another is their Holiday Mistletoe fragrance.
When entertaining, I enjoy Claire Burke's Original scent candles...especially on evenings on the porch in the fall.

My mom is currently into soy candles.....is there a company that will re-fill their containers with new candles?

I pour my own candles (repeating myself from a different thread, sorry) and make my own soaps and really like

Special Edition Vanilla (from sweetcakes)
Applejack and Peel (from sweetcakes)
Most any Christmas fragrance

If I'm not pouring my own I like a Grapefruit scent from
Home Interior, I think it's pink grapefruit or Grapefruit Splash. Home Interior has another one that's called Baked Apples or Apple Pie or something like that. Their candles throw the scent better than any other mass produced candle that I've found. At least they did a year or so ago when I got several for gifts.

I love any candle with Sandalwood. I have one that is Mandarin & Sandalwood and one that is Sage & Sandalwood. I just bought another one called Coastal breeze that smells really good.

Since so many candles are toxic, we only burn beeswax and soy.

I stick to food scents, vanilla, cinnamon, etc as I'm allergic to most of the florals. I got some from Watkins that were really nice. I like soy candles too. I've purchased some at craft fairs, etc.

I like various scents but my favorite one is Lavender.

I really love Pacifica Soy Candles, and Yankee. In warmer weather I like the fruity or light floral. In colder weather I like anything spicy, vanilla based, and maybe incensy.
