A scented candle is one of the simplest ways to change the feel of a room. The right fragrance can make a space feel calming, fresh or more inviting. Myer's scented candles range includes soy candles, container candles, large statement jars, travel-sized minis, gift sets and seasonal releases across a wide range of fragrance profiles, from fresh florals to warm woods and gourmand favourites.

How long do scented candles burn for?

Burn time depends on the size of the candle and the type of wax used. Smaller candles may burn for around 15 to 25 hours, medium-sized candles for 40 to 60 hours, while larger candles can last significantly longer. For best results, trim the wick regularly and burn candles in sessions of around 2 to 3 hours.

What is the best type of wax for scented candles?

Soy wax is a popular choice because it's renewable, generally burns more slowly and produces less visible soot than traditional paraffin wax. Coconut wax blends and beeswax are also great natural options.

How do I make a scented candle last longer?

On the first burn, let the wax pool reach the edges of the jar to prevent tunnelling. Trim the wick to 5mm before every burn, keep candles away from draughts and never burn for more than 3 to 4 hours.

What scents are best for different rooms?

Fresh citrus and herbaceous scents like lemongrass, basil and eucalyptus work well in kitchens and bathrooms. Warm woods, leather and tobacco suit living rooms. Soft florals, vanilla and musk are calming choices for bedrooms.

How do I choose a scented candle for someone else?

Think about the recipient's perfume or favourite home scents. If you're unsure, go with widely loved notes like vanilla, sandalwood, sea salt or fig. Boxed candles and trio gift sets are especially popular for birthdays, housewarmings, Mother's Day and Christmas.
