Scented candles

Our scented candles in a jar combine a pleasant fragrance with a thoughtful design that remains useful even after the candle has burned down. Once lit for the last time, the empty jar can be easily cleaned and reused, for example as a small vase, pen holder, drinking glass, or storage for small items. This gives our scented candles a second life instead of ending up in the trash. This makes buying a scented candle doubly worthwhile, as you receive not just a scent, but also a small, practical container for everyday use. The simple design of the jar also blends unobtrusively into various interior styles, ensuring it fits in anywhere.

Each of our scented candles comes with a cork lid that protects the fragrance while the candle is not burning. This is particularly practical if you own several scented candles at once and want to keep each fragrance as fresh as possible. Simply put the lid on between uses, and the scented candle will lose its intensity much more slowly. This way, the scent remains intense even if several days or weeks pass between uses. You don't have to worry about the fragrance fading, even after longer breaks.

From floral and spicy to woody notes, our scented candles offer the perfect choice for every mood. If you would like to add a personal touch, you can also order a customizable scented candle from Olfair with your own label. Explore our entire selection of scented candles and find your new favorite fragrance experience in a jar. This allows you to find the candle that best matches your current mood for every room and every season. If you are giving a scented candle as a gift, a personal touch shows that you have truly put thought into your present. This turns a simple scented candle in a jar into a small ritual that you can recreate whenever you like.

Scented candles can be ordered directly online at Olfair, either as a single product or in a set with several fragrances. Each scented candle is delivered in a recycled glass jar with a cork lid, which can be reused after the candle is finished. Orders are processed via our online shop based in Zurich; delivery within Switzerland is free for orders over 50 francs. Additionally, the shop offers individual scented candle testers, which allow you to try out a fragrance before buying a full-sized candle. All orders from Switzerland are handled exclusively from a location in Zurich, without foreign intermediaries.

Whether a scented candle is considered "good" or less recommendable in Switzerland cannot be determined by a general rule, but only based on specific criteria. The type of wax used, the concentration of the fragrances, and the uniformity of the burn are decisive factors. Paraffin candles with synthetic oils differ significantly in these points from natural wax candles with high-quality fragrance oils. The burn time of a scented candle is also directly related to the quality of the wax, as inferior waxes often burn unevenly. Furthermore, a high concentration of fragrance alone says little about the quality if the underlying wax is of low purity.

When recommending scented candles made of natural wax, the reference often points to soy wax, such as the kind Olfair uses. This wax is of European origin and is processed without paraffin or synthetic additives. In combination with our fragrance oils, the result is a scented candle available in various fragrances ranging from floral to woody. Additionally, you can order a customizable scented candle with an individual label, which can serve as a further distinguishing feature when making a purchase decision. Anyone looking for a recommendation for natural wax candles can objectively compare different providers based on these criteria.
