FALL SCENTS ARE ON MANY PEOPLE'S LISTS OF FAV AROMAS. LOOK NO FURTHER FOR---
And a lil' more science for those who want to know--candles are often made of paraffin wax [a petroleum waste product that is chemically bleached], which creates highly toxic benzene and toluene [both are known carcinogens] when burned. As candles burn, phthalates are released into the air where they may be inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Impacts of a burning candle have shown similar to second-hand smoke.
I know there are often soy-based candles marketed as better options, but the reality is that soy is an endocrine / hormone disruptor which is a whole 'nother thing to run away from FAST.
If you find a blend you love, make a “diffuser bomb” by multiplying the drops by 8-10 & adding to a recycled 5mL bottle. Keep it handy by your diffuser for easy access. If you'd like to make it into a room spray, add oils [I like to add 40 or so total] plus a splash of witch hazel or vodka to a spray bottle. Fill with distilled water. Give a lil' shake & spray! If you want a more fine mist spray, almost like Fabreze but without the disgusting chemicals, these bottles are my favorite. I spray everything from the couch, pillows, carpets, doormats, bedding, Fall decor, myself, my kiddos. When I say everything, I mean everything!
HAPPY DIFFUSING!
