Waarom ruikt mijn geurkaars niet sterk genoeg?

Why doesn't my scented candle smell strong enough?

You light a scented candle, but the fragrance remains subtle or barely present. This can be disappointing, especially if you want to create ambiance. In most cases, this is not due to the scent itself, but to how the candle burns.

How scent spreads

Scent is released when the wax fully melts. Only when a uniform melt pool forms can the scent spread well throughout the room.

Common causes

  • The candle burns too short

  • The wax does not melt to the edge

  • The room is too large

  • The wick is not optimally adjusted

How to get the most out of your scented candle

Allow the candle to burn until the top layer is completely liquid with each burn. This ensures a more intense fragrance and prevents wax wastage.

Conclusion
A calmly and evenly burning candle always provides more scent and a greater experience.
