Hi Everyone and thank you for having me on your forum....
I have only been attempting to make candles for the past month or so, I started off thinking it seemed like a pretty easy process...how wrong was I!!
I have tried Naturewax C3 and EcoSoya CB Xcel waxes as I really want to make environmentally friendly candles. However, I have made several candles, different wick sizes, different pouring temps, added fragrance at different temps etc and I can't get a good hot throw from anything. My most recent experiment was allowing the wax to cool to 37 degrees celcius then adding fragrance at 10% and pouring - these are curing so I haven't tried them yet.
I am wondering if there is a particular soy wax that is best for good hot scent throw and if there are any particular websites in the UK that do fragrance oils that are known to be good in soy wax and provide a good hot scent throw. I am desperate to achieve the candle scent that you can smell throughout the house and so far I am getting nothing at all and it is turning out to be very costly.
If anyone can give me any advice I would really appreciate it.
Many thanks in advance
