What To Look For In A Cinnamon Candle ?
The spicy scent of cinnamon is a fragrance that so many of us love, and to enjoy it to it's finest, you need to make sure you have a quality cinnamon candle.
There are certain factors to look for, to make sure you have a great candle. Here are some tips.
Wonderful Fragrance
An unlit candle should still smell delightful. The fragrance should be strong, but not overpowering. You want the scent should fill the room gently, not permeate everything. When smelling a cold and unlit candle, it should never irritate the nostrils, if they do, it is likely that when lit the odour will be unpleasant.
Beautiful Presentation
It isn't just the fragrance you enjoy when you light a scented candle, you also enjoy the subtle glow of a dancing flame. It is all about creating an atmosphere, and a sparkling glass candle, will help create the perfect ambiance, as the flame is reflected in the shining surface.
Perfect for Candles
Cinnamon works so well as a candle fragrance, because it not only smells fantastic on its own, it also complements a number of other scents perfectly.
Cinnamon blends well with so many other fragrances, including:
Other Spices
Cardamom, clove, ginger, vanilla, majoram and nutmeg.
Florals
Rose, peppermint and ylang ylang.
Fruits
Apple,
Citruses
bergamot, grapefruit, lemon, mandarin and orange.
You can enjoy a great blend of fragrances by burning a few of the different scented candles together. Or you could add a few drops of a complementing essential oil to your cinnamon candle, which, will blend with the scent of the candle a short while after you light the wick when the oil has warmed. Mix with citrus to invigorate and awaken, or with florals and other spices to create a romantic or relaxed atmosphere.
