Herbal Fragrances in Candles

In the past people have used herbal fragrances to repel insects and hide odors that came from inside their homes.  Herbs were used for a purpose and not for the fragrance that it gave off.  In recent years the herbs have been used to fragrance homes, not to hide odors, but to be an enjoyment and add to a home’s decor. Candles and diffusers are an easy way to spread an intoxicating, unique fragrance throughout your home.

Scented candles get their fragrance from the essential oils that come from the herbs.  The essential oils have been known for their therapeutic and aromatic benefits. The use of essential oils in candles has made them popular over the years providing fragrances that can be enjoyed.
