Tips for Scent Selection
Consider the season: Lighter, fresher scents work well in spring and summer, while warmer, spicier scents are perfect for fall and winter.
Test before committing: If possible, smell the candle before purchasing to ensure you love the scent.
Rotate scents: Change your candles seasonally or monthly to keep your home feeling fresh.
Less is more: Don't burn multiple strong scents at once - they can clash and become overwhelming.
