How to store scented candles?

Every candle enthusiast and candle enthusiast will agree that the appetite for new scents increases with burning! Therefore, after some time, our candle collection may contain many beautifully scented candles. The question then arises: how to store candles properly? What to do with those scented candles that we only use at certain times of the year (typically autumn scents, for example). There are some basic recommendations for storing scented candles.

How to store scented candles?

  1. First of all, if we are not going to use the candle, make sure it is properly prepared for storage. Remember to trim the candle wick to a length of approximately 5 mm using a wick trimmer.
  2. Once we have trimmed the wick, let's check if there are any impurities left on the wax (powder, wick remnants, sometimes even... small insects!). If we find such contamination, remove it gently.
  3. Once the wick is trimmed and the candle is clean, we can safely close the scented candle using the included lid. If the candle does not have a lid, it is a good idea to wrap the top with e.g. a plastic bag while storing the candle. What does this give us? By closing the candle, we can limit unnecessary fragrance diffusion to some extent.
  4. Speaking of fragrance diffusion, the warmer it is, the greater it is. Therefore, we store large and small scented candles in a cool and dry place. Storing in a dry place is also very important in the case of traditional candles or those without a lid. The properties of the candle deteriorate under the influence of moisture, and in the worst case scenario, the wick may not want to light.
  5. It is a good idea to store candles in a shaded place, out of direct sunlight. Thanks to this, the candle will not change color or deform. We always store candles in a vertical position for the same reason.
