A tool designed to assist in determining the appropriate amount of fragrance oil for candle making, this resource typically requires inputs such as the type of wax used and the desired fragrance strength. For example, a user might input soy wax and a 10% fragrance load to determine the precise amount of fragrance oil needed for a specific weight of wax.
Accurate fragrance load calculations are essential for achieving desirable scent throw, minimizing adverse effects like frosting or poor burning, and ensuring the overall quality and safety of the finished candle. Historically, candle makers relied on experience and approximations, but the increasing demand for consistent, high-quality candles has driven the development of more precise tools. This resource provides a level of precision and control that contributes to both professional and hobbyist candle making success.
