When you light a Plandai Pure Plant Candle, you fill your space with the same aromas plants diffuse in their natural environment. You can take in a deep breath, not worrying about synthetic chemical fragrances or petroleum based products. Pure Plant Candles contain organic or wildcrafted essential oils in natural coconut wax. The essential oils in these candles are tested with gas chromatography to ensure an honest, purely grown plant oil comes from the supplier. The aromas of Pure Plant Candles make for a true, down to earth smell. You are smelling the aromatic part of the plant as if you were to smell the plant growing in the ground. Coconut wax does not carry a scent and makes for a very clean burning candle. Coconut wax is created by heating and then gently cooling coconut oil. This is a natural process as compared to chemical hydrogenation of soybean oil for soy wax. Paraffin waxes are made from crude oil. By using coconut wax we stay committed to an all plant experience.
