At first, it may sound like a contradiction — how can a candle without added fragrance smell good? But the truth is, a high-quality unscented candle can have a naturally pleasant aroma thanks to its ingredients, purity, and wax quality.
Our unscented candle collection at Karessa Candles is made using pure soy wax, free from synthetic perfumes and paraffin, offering a clean, subtle, naturally soothing aroma.
What does an unscented candle smell like?
An unscented candle, especially when made with premium soy or beeswax, has a faint, clean smell. You might notice:
-
A creamy, slightly sweet undertone from natural soy wax
-
A neutral, cozy warmth when the candle is lit
-
No overpowering scent — perfect for people with allergies or sensitivities
Our hand-poured unscented jars are a popular choice for minimalist homes.
Who should use unscented candles?
Unscented candles are ideal for:
-
People with fragrance sensitivities or migraines
-
Yoga and meditation sessions where strong smells are distracting
-
Events and dinners where food or flowers take center stage
-
Bedrooms or nurseries needing a calm, neutral environment
They also make thoughtful additions to our customizable gift hampers.
