Scent Throw
Ready to burn (and smell) right after the wax cools and hardens. Scent throw will also depend on how much is used, if it is a quality, strong oil, and if the candle is wicked properly.
Soy candles need time to cure for the scent to be “set.” We recommend a minimum of 5-6 days. The scent will usually get stronger over a few weeks. Scent throw will also depend on how much is used, if it is a quality, strong oil, and if the candle is wicked properly.
