  • Top Notes : These are the initial scents you smell when you first lighting your candle. They are vibrant and fresh, setting the tone for the fragrance journey ahead.

  • Middle Notes : Also known as heart notes, these form the core of the fragrance and emerge once the top notes have dissipated. They provide depth and fullness to the scent.

  • Base Notes : These are the foundation of the fragrance, appearing once the middle notes have faded away. Base notes are rich, warm, and long-lasting, anchoring the entire scent profile.​

​
Creating Your Scent Journey​
 
Now that you have an understanding of fragrance notes, it's time to embark on the exciting journey of crafting your own candle scent. Here are some tips to help you along the way:
 

  • Identify Your Preferences : Think about scents that resonate with you. Do you prefer floral, woody, citrusy, or gourmand fragrances? Understanding your preferences will serve as a great starting point.

  • Start Simple : For beginners, it's best to start with 2-3 fragrance oils to avoid overwhelming your senses. Experiment with different combinations to find what blends harmoniously.

  • Balance is Key : Aim to strike a balance between the different notes in your scent combination. Consider combining a fresh top note with a warm base note for a well-rounded fragrance.

  • Don't Be Afraid to Experiment : The beauty of creating your own candle scent is the freedom to experiment. Mix and match different oils until you find a combination that speaks to you.
