Here’s a complete breakdown:
What it is

- Often used for: uplifting energy, stress relief, or a fresh citrus aroma in your home.
Types
- Soy candles – clean burn, good scent throw, eco-friendly
- Beeswax candles – natural, subtle honey undertone
- Paraffin candles – stronger scent throw, longer burn, but less eco-friendly
- Gel candles – decorative, see-through, slow burn
Common Additions
- Spices: cinnamon, clove, or nutmeg for a warm fall vibe
- Herbs: rosemary, mint, or thyme for complexity
- Layering: blending orange with vanilla, sandalwood, or cedarwood
Benefits
- Bright, citrusy scent can energize and improve mood
- Perfect for kitchen or living room
- Makes a great gift—especially in fall/winter or for “welcome home” vibes
Usage Tips
- Trim wick to ~¼ inch before each burn
- Let candle melt across the entire surface for an even burn
- Keep away from drafts to avoid tunneling
