Ultimate Scentsy Candles FAQs: Everything You Need to Know

Welcome to your Ultimate Scentsy Candles FAQs — because with the biggest glow-up in Scentsy history just around the corner, it’s time to answer all your burning questions about our brand-new candles.

Scentsy Candles are launching this September in the USA and Canada — and the rest of the world is next in line! If you’re excited, curious, or even a little confused about what’s coming, don’t worry — this Ultimate Scentsy Candles FAQs blog covers it all.

What are Scentsy Candles made of?

Scentsy Candles are made with a premium soy-paraffin blend, designed to:

Burn cleanly and evenly
Maximise fragrance throw
Reduce smoke and soot
Deliver a beautiful, creamy wax finish

Every candle is tested to the highest standards for safety, performance, and scent quality. Learn more about what Scentsy Candles are made of in our detailed blog on What is a Scentsy Candle?.

Do Scentsy Candles use special wicks?

Yes! Each candle features either a natural or synthetic wick, carefully selected to suit the fragrance and vessel size perfectly. This ensures an even burn and strong, consistent fragrance — without tunnelling or wick drowning.

Learn more about this in our comprehensive blog How to Use Multi-Wick Scentsy Candles the Right Way.

Will Scentsy Candles smoke or create soot?

Scentsy Candles are crafted for a low-smoke, clean-burning experience when used as directed. We rigorously test them to meet ASTM International safety standards, helping to support healthier indoor air quality and peace of mind.

How do I safely burn a Scentsy candle?

Burning candles should always be done with care. Here’s what to keep in mind:

Trim the wick to 0.6 cm before each use
Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time
Extinguish when 0.6 cm of wax remains
Keep candles away from drafts, flammables, children, and pets
Always place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface

Why is there wax left in the bottom?

That small amount of wax left at the base is intentional! It prevents the jar from overheating at the bottom and protects the vessel from cracking. It’s part of our thoughtful safety-first design.

Why isn’t the Scentsy wax coloured?

Scentsy doesn’t use dyes in its candles. The natural colour of each wax varies slightly based on the fragrance oils used, which helps maintain a clean, elegant look. Learn more here: Why Scentsy Candle Wax Isn’t Coloured

How strong are the Scentsy Candle scents?

Scentsy Candles deliver a subtle, ambient scent — a more delicate fragrance experience than Scentsy Bars or Pods. They’re perfect for people who prefer a subtle background scent rather than a bold fragrance.

What sizes and styles of Scentsy Candles will be available?

At launch, we’re introducing design-forward vessels and select candle sizes, with additional offerings to follow. Expect premium packaging and decor-worthy designs that reflect your style and Scentsy’s signature quality.

Where are Scentsy Candles made?

All Scentsy Candles are developed and manufactured in Meridian, Idaho, USA — giving us complete control over quality, performance, and consistency. Did you know Scentsy Candles are handmade?

Do Scentsy Candles come with a warranty?

Yes! Scentsy Candles come with a lifetime warranty for manufacturing defects. If your candle arrives damaged or isn’t performing as it should, we’ll replace or exchange it — no problem.

When will Scentsy Candles be available near me?

Scentsy Candles will launch in September 2025 in the United States and Canada, with the United Kingdom, Europe, and other regions following shortly after. Learn more about where you can buy Scentsy candles here.
