Scentsy Wickless vs Scentsy Candles: Why We’re Still Flame-Free (Mostly)
If you’re comparing Scentsy Wickless vs Scentsy Candles, let us put your mind at ease. This isn’t a replacement. It’s an evolution — and we’re still 100% committed to being your flame-free favourite.
For over two decades, Scentsy has proudly led the way in wickless fragrance — delivering safe, stylish, and flame-free scent to homes all over the world. From our iconic wax warmers and bars to fan diffusers and Fragrance Flowers, we’ve built a brand around eliminating the risks of open flames without sacrificing fragrance or beauty.
So with the launch of Scentsy Candles in the U.S. and Canada… what gives?
Wickless Will Always Be Our Core
Our Scentsy Bars and electric warmers are still at the heart of what we do. Why?
- They’re completely flameless, using a low-watt bulb or hot plate to gently warm wax.
- They’re safer for homes with kids, pets, or curious hands.
- They offer maximum fragrance strength, ideal for scent lovers who want a bold, customisable scent in every room.
- They reflect our values of safety, style, and simplicity — and they’re here to stay.
We are not moving away from wickless — we’re just giving customers another beautiful way to enjoy Scentsy fragrance.

So, Why Scentsy Candles?
Honestly…well, because fragrance lovers often want both.
The global candle market is booming, and more customers than ever are pairing wax melts with premium candles to match different moods and moments. Scentsy Candles were developed in response to that — and they bring something new and exciting to the table:
- A clean-burning soy-paraffin wax blend
- Subtle, ambient fragrance using familiar Scentsy scents
- Decor-inspired vessels made to elevate your space
- Safety-tested design with strict ASTM standards
It’s a beautiful new option — with a flicker of warmth that complements, not replaces, our wickless range.

Alexandra’s Take
“As someone who’s proudly been #Wickfree for over a decade, I get it. I really do. But when I lit my first Scentsy Candle, I realised — this isn’t taking away from who we are. It’s adding a new layer to what we offer. It’s glow and go.”
— Alexandra Wickfree, Superstar Director
