Hi, 2 weeks ago I made a batch of candles using soy wax and 3% essential oils. I heated the wax to around 75 degrees C then added EOs at 65 - 70 degrees, stirred for a few minutes and poured at about 60 degrees. Anyway today I tested a tealight and a wax melt. However, whilst the wax melt smelled beautifully and filled 2 rooms with fragrance the tealight gave off no scent at all during the 6+ hours that it was burning. Does anyone have any insights into what I could be doing wrong? Other than the lack of scent it seemed to burn perfectly, so I'm at a loss :(
