Essential oils are categorized into top, middle, and base notes based on the speed of their evaporation, which is related to their characteristics. Here are some common essential oils for each note:
Top Note Essential Oils:
Middle Note Essential Oils:
Base Note Essential Oils:
The typical recommended ratio for top, middle, and base note essential oils is 3:2:1 or 2:2:1. However, when creating blends for DIY scented candle, there isn't a strict rule, and it's not necessary to adhere to these ratios. The key is to avoid using only top note essential oils in your blend.
Blending essential oils is a big topic. But remember the rule of thumb is : For pure essential oils, don't exceed 10%, i.e., for 300g soy wax, keep the total essential oil weight under 30g. Choose your essential oils based on personal preferences or buy pre-blended essential oils. Be cautious of alcohol content in some blends, which may not be suitable for candles. Citrus oils and top-note essential oils, which often evaporate faster, should be balanced with middle and base notes.
Secure the wick using a small amount of wax. Use pre-waxed wicks can be much easier for beginners, as unwaxed ones may not stand upright.
Trimming prevents excessive burning and large flames, reducing soot. Cut any excess wick length.
