I am one of those people that is sensitive to smells and fragrances. Can't tell you the number of times I've had to leave a terrific store because the candle they were burning gave me a headache or made the insides of me ears feel hot ( I know, weird symptom) Finally, I've found a candle that I can burn at home that has a clean, fresh scent and doesn't cause any allergic symptoms in me. It's the k hall designs Jar Candle, Sweet Orange and Cassia
. The other good news is that they really do last for as long as they say they will - 60 hours. Just passing this on in case you're like me and are looking for candles you can enjoy!
k hall is my absolute favorite shop. they are local and have such amazing things. i know that scent well and love it.

This is great because I am sensitive to fragrances.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried Aveda candles? They are largely natural and tend not to aggravate the senses. Years ago I worked for them at their headquarters and became so sensitized to synthetic aroma that I could smell it from a mile away. Those of us who worked there could literally tell if there was a temp employee (using non-Aveda products) anywhere on the second floor. And the smells from the manufacturing floor were always so lovely, nothing jarring to the nose at all.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely try these candles. I too have sensitivities to fragrances and synthetic additives.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this post.

Perfumy candles give me a headache! I love fresh scents (and I don't mean vanilla or cotton).
