▲ 4 r/candlemaking
I have been working on my brand for over 2 years, launched in Nov last year. My core idea is a sensory story telling. Each scent is a combination of my memories, travels and people I meet all intertwined into a scent story.
I was simply blending fragrance oils- bases and single notes until I got what I wanted, then testing in candles (scent, wick the usual).
Since Jan I have been doing Advanced perfumery course. And I am venturing into making my own fragrance oils from raw materials. I know that some oils (ex. Lemon oil and some single molecules) wont perform well in candles and i will need to built accords with that in mind.
Has anyone went down this path and any tips you are willing to share?
