Candelitas Scent Mixology
Why settle for one scent when you can become your own fragrance mixologist? Because our wax melts are formulated with a premium, clean-melting blend, they are perfect for layering.
To mix scents, simply snap off half a square of two different wax melts and place them together in your electric warmer.
The Ultimate Fall Bakery
Mix Pumpkin Chai + Pan Dulce. This creates an incredibly rich, spiced sweet bread aroma that will make everyone think you’ve been baking all day.
The Winter Cabin
Mix Mahogany Teakwood + Cranberry Birch. Woodsy teakwood perfectly balances the bright, festive pop of winter berries.
The Desert Oasis
Mix Amor en Flor + Cactus Blossom. A gorgeous, ultra-romantic botanical blend that feels like a high-end spring spa day.
The Holiday Morning
Mix Holiday Spice + Peppermint Mocha. A warm, spicy, chocolaty blend that captures the feeling of opening gifts by the fire.
Quick Tips for the Best Scent Throw
- Trim the wick: Always trim your candle wick to 1/4 inch before every single burn to ensure a clean, soot-free flame.
- Let it pool: On your first burn, let the candle stay lit until the melted wax reaches the edges of the jar. This prevents tunneling and extends the life of your candle.
- Know your space: Use wax melts or smaller candles for bathrooms and offices, and burn bolder scents in larger, open-concept living areas.
