Out of all the millions of people who love candles, a huge percent lean towards vanilla as their favorite candle scent. Before you buy, here's information you should know. There's many reason why this could be. Maybe it's because vanilla was one of the first scents ever created for candles. Maybe it's a familiar baking scent. Or maybe it's just so basic it appeals to just about everyone. Regardless of WHY people like vanilla, it's clear there is no shortage in finding vanilla and vanilla related scents in candles. When you visit any candle site, one of the first things you see is probably vanilla. There are literally thousands of different types, ranging from "strong vanilla" type scents to just hints of vanilla in the description. It's used as a base for many unique scents like some less popular "Cinderella" or "Caribbean Morning". (If you've never heard of these scents, you aren't alone!) With all the choices of vanilla scents out there, how can you decide which is going to be the best? Since vanilla is vanilla no matter what it's in, here are some tips for choosing the best kind of candle to buy in vanilla scents: - Choose Soy Wax Candles Everyone who burns a soy candle has never gone back to paraffin. Soy burns cleaner, and often times has a better scent throw. You'll also get a longer burn time, so the value is better - Watch for Different Names Sometimes it's not called just "Vanilla". At Prairie Soy Candles, the true vanilla scent is called "Vanilla Silk". This is just a fancy name for the vanilla scent you already know. - Check out Suggestions Some sites offer suggestions on how to use certain scents. Some work better in a jar, while others are best in melts (often called "tarts"). Read suggestions carefully to get the most out of your candle! - Use Melt Warmers Regardless of the scent, you are going to have the best scent "throw" in a melt warmer. Buy electric if possible, and use with wax melts. Melt warmers are especially important in larger rooms to get the maximum scent throw. Do be sure to view all scent descriptions as well, because you never know when your favorite vanilla scent is going to blend into a new favorite scent! |
