How long do soy candles last?

Luxury candles can be a beautiful addition to your home’s decor. You might like the
look of a gorgeous new candle in a pretty glass. But you might be wondering how
long do candles last if you don’t light them.

As your candles age you may find that the scent starts to weaken. This happens
because molecules of fragrance oil are slowly but continually evaporating from the
wax into the air, even when the candle isn’t burning. This means that the longer you store your candle without burning it, the less fragrance will be produced when you do decide to light it.

If you want to enjoy the strongest fragrance then it’s best to burn it
as soon after purchase as possible.

Pure soy candles contain no artificial preservatives and can develop a whitish bloom over time. The wax can also deteriorate over time if your candle is not stored in a cool, dry place which may lead to your candle not burning as it should.

My advice: life is short; burn the candle, buy the shoes, eat the cake.
