No you can’t use those scents. To have a candle that would have a strong scent you would have to add more than the recommended amount and then it wouldn’t burn properly. I have heard that Jo-anne’s or Michaels carry them but I usually purchase from a candle supplier so I don’t know about those places. You can order some great oils at they are some of the best on the market. There are a lot of online stores that sell fragrance oils.
u can not use those scents use only fragrance…………
No. Only use fragrances that are developed for use in candles. Some of the scents at Walmart, etc. may have a low flash point due to things like alcohol or other spirits that are used to enhance the scent.
I recommend stores that sell candle supplies. A good one for both supplies and information is
. They have two on-line stores (WI and TX) so choose the one that is closest. Plus you can buy from them and you don’t need a business ID.
