Cold Throw Vs. Hot Throw Candles

Do you buy candles just because they smell nice when they're not lit? A lot of us, including me, often choose things based on their scent. Like when you catch a whiff of something tasty cooking, it makes you hungry, right? But with candles, it's a bit different. Just because a candle smells great in the store doesn't mean it'll have the same awesome scent when you light it up.

Oops! This blunder happened way more than we thought. At first glance, it seemed like the vessel was the culprit, but then we took a whiff and realized it smelled right! That's when we goof up; we blow our cash on something that looks prettier because of the vase instead of the Scent.

Here are tips to help you choose candles wisely, excluding considerations for a cold throw or the vessel.

1- Explore brand reviews to guide you in the right direction. While reviews can be tricky, they will provide you with valuable insights.

2- Check if the brand sale samples, this day nothing is for free but at least paying for a sample will save you a couple of $$$.

3-When you're picking out candles, choose ones made with high-quality wax like soy or beeswax instead of the cheaper paraffin wax for a more natural burn.

4- It's always a good idea to have a backup brand handy, just in case. We often stick to one brand and don't explore other options. If candles aren't your thing because of the flame, diffusers are a great alternative. But I'll talk more about diffusers in another post...

Spill the beans on what makes you snag a candle! Was it the chilly aroma or did the vessel just wink at you and say, "Buy me!"?
