  Lilial Update – 01/03/2022:  As of September 2019, Escentscia began to remove lilial and lyral from our fragrances at our request in advance of reclassification changes. Since this time, our customers who signed up to newsletters have been notified via email whenever a fragrance oil has been tweaked to remove lilial or lyral, or where there have been changes to fragrance oil documentation.  From today, home fragrance products containing more than 0.3% lilial in the finished product cannot be sold to the public. Home fragrance products which contain less than 0.3% lilial in the finished product are not affected and can still be sold.  Very few of our fragrances contained lilial at a high enough percentage to trigger 0.3% in the finished product and those that did were the first fragrances to be tweaked when the reworks began in 2019.  Despite this, we wanted to go further, and we are happy to announce that all of the fragrance oils on the 4Candles website are n...

This comes to rest on a bed of Indian Incense, star anise and musk to create a fragrance which is complex, sophisticated, and has legendary depth.  Raspberry Tarte Top notes of succulent raspberries dance with a core of luxuriously thick cream, voluptuous vanilla and raspberry glaze whic...

Escentscia hav e rebranded their ranges and tweaked the formulas. Ahead of changes to fragrance legislation, such as the reclassification of lilial, Escentscia have begun to implement changes ahead of time . These changes are very small and the scent of the fragrances and how they perform in your candles/melts has not changed in any way. Testing is not required. Escentscia Original fragrance oil range has now been rebranded to Prime Range. Prime Range fragrances are designed to be used as a strong single scent. They can be used on their own or together for your own unique blend.  Escentscia have also rebranded the Escentscia US Style fragrance oil range to Style Range. Style, by definition, is an elegant, fashionable, or luxurious mode of living. We believe this perfectly embodies the style fragrances which are styled blends designed by expert perfumers.  All our fragrance oils are suitable for vegans, not tested on animals, and are paraben, petroleum and s...
