A Guide to Choosing the right Candle Scent

Here at Jireh Home Collection, we are so happy when our tribe, makes the right decision in choosing a candle, that they can't stop burning.

So, we have put together a quick guide, to help you choose the right candle scent for you!

1. Start with the group of scents you gravitate towards:

Floral & Sweet

Wood & Spice

Earth & Pine

Citrus & Fruit

2. After identifying your preference, notice the scent notes in our descriptions: You will notice a top, middle & base note. Top notes are the first notes you sense, they 'introduce' the candle fragrance.

3. Think about which room you'll place your candle in. This is important, but often gets over-looked. Think of your space; where do you want to place the candle and what mood do you want to create? What is the size of the room?

Strong bold scents that give a strong scent throw is ideal for larger areas, subtle scent throws for smaller areas. Floral scents like our French pear is a great fit for bathroom areas as it is subtle, so perfect for small spaces. Haven, Moment & Santal candles are strong in smell, but are not harsh and aren't too feminine, so they work well in living spaces; where room is more open. Back to Nature is good for bedroom areas as it is very relaxing. Rejuvenate also suits small spaces as it is subtle, it is also suitable for the kitchen area, as it won't interfere with cooking aromas.

4. Think Seasonally. You can also choose scents based on the Season. Haven, Moment & Back to Nature bring warmth, so are comforting for Winter. Rejuvenate & French Pear are fresh for Summer.
