Scents
Da Silva Candles prides itself on producing a truly natural paraffin candle product. As we don't add artificial stabilizers and scent strengthening ingredients, we are truly reliant on the natural properties of the fragrance oils, the paraffin wax, the wick and the color. These are the only items we put into the candle. As a result, some of our candles are stronger than others.Many candle companies claim to be "triple scented," "saturated," etc. Well, the fact is, paraffin candle wax can chemically only hold a certain amount of fragrance before it becomes saturated like a sponge. In fact, candles that are "over fragranced" can even "leak" or "sweat." Some research has backed that over-scented candles could become fire hazards.
Da Silva Candles strictly follows our fragrance manufactures' guidelines on the total amount of fragrance to mix per pound of wax. We add the maximum safely allowed, and using our "Perfect Pour Method," make certain the fragrance is consistently mixed throughout our candles. But guess what, everyone is different. Not everyone likes an "overpowering candle," but for some people, too much fragrance is never possible.
