Your home is your haven where you take refuge after fighting bitter battles with the outside world. It is a peaceful retreat away from the humdrum and noise of city life. This is the reason that most people spend a lot of money, time and energy in making their homes comfortable and beautiful. When we think of a pleasant experience we need to take into consideration all the senses like smell, sight, taste etc. If you have a beautifully designed home which is well decorated and pleasant to the eyes, but is infused with foul odors, you will not be comfortable in it. When you think of the smell of a home, you think of woolen rugs, wooden furniture and the aroma of food cooking. To these pleasant smells if you add some exotic smell like lavender or sandalwood, it will make your home all the more inviting and pleasant.

The best part is that the smells of these aromatic substances are also known to provide some emotional, mental and physical benefits. For instance, lavender soothes the brain and is helpful if you want some peaceful relaxation and sleep. On the other hand sandalwood is an energizing aroma. Then again there is citronella which is a natural insect repellant and protects you from mosquitoes and other house hold insects. What’s more citronella is a completely natural substance and does not have any of the harmful side effects of chemical insect destroyers.

In fact aromatherapy has become quite popular all over the world and people use this healing therapy for treating many different physical and mental problems. There are many ways of using aroma oils – diffusers, sprays, and many others. One of the popular ways of using this therapy is burning scented candles which contain aromatic essential oils. Of course it is not necessary only to use those candles which provide some therapeutic benefits because you also get scented candles which are merely meant for providing a pleasant fragrance.

Nowadays there are many different types of scented candles available in the market and even on online stores. However, most of them are made of paraffin wax, which cause asthmatic attacks, allergies or even headaches in people who are allergic to them. This is the reason that more and more people are now opting for candles made of beeswax. Beeswax is an environmentally sound ingredient and does not have any of the unpleasant side effects associated with paraffin wax.

They do not give off soot or smoke and burn with a warm and steady glow. At the same time, beeswax also emits negative ions when burned and these ions purify the air. Pure beeswax candles when burned gives out a mild honey like fragrance which when combined with the essential oils result in an exquisite scent. Some companies sell beeswax scented candles which are completely hand made in the Himalayas and use only 100% cotton wicks.
