Using Bescent in Scented Candles

Yes, you can use Bescent products in scented candles, and they are designed to help improve the diffusion and performance of your fragrance, especially if your current blend isn't diffusing well when burned.

Bescent acts as a scent booster or fixative in candle formulations. It helps the fragrance molecules disperse more effectively into the air as the candle burns, resulting in a stronger and more consistent scent throw.

Regarding your concern about ingredients like Linalool, Geraniol, and Limonene, these are common components found in many natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances. The safety concerns when burning candles containing these substances are often related to the byproducts of combustion, particularly in poorly ventilated spaces or at high concentrations. Proper formulation, using appropriate waxes and wicks, and ensuring good ventilation when burning candles are key factors for safety.

Bescent products (such as Bescents E, Bescents F, and Bescents H) are not the same type of chemical compounds as Linalool, Geraniol, or Limonene. While Linalool, Geraniol, and Limonene are individual fragrance chemicals or components often found within essential oils and fragrance blends, Bescent is a product specifically developed to enhance the performance of fragrances in applications like candles. It works with your existing fragrance blend to improve its scent throw, rather than being a fragrance component itself like Linalool or Geraniol.

Therefore, using Bescent can help your existing essential oil blend perform better in a candle without adding more of the specific fragrance chemicals you are concerned about, although the original essential oil blend will still contain its natural components.
