FAQs

What are STUDIO MAVEA's scented candles made of?

Made from 100% European soy wax with a cotton wick that produces a gentle, crackling flame as it burns.

Do the fragrance oils cause headaches?

No. We only use high-quality fragrance oils based on tested formulas - paraben-free and phthalate-free.

How long does a scented candle burn?

Depending on the size, approximately 20-30 hours on average.

Can I have a scented candle personalized?

Yes, upon request with a name, dedication, or short message, as well as a handwritten card – ideal if the scented candle is intended as a gift. For this, select the product "personalizable scented candle". If you simply want to add a handwritten card, book the gift service.

What are the fragrance families?

From floral-warm (e.g., Jasmine Dream with bergamot, cardamom, jasmine, ylang ylang) to wintery-woody (e.g., Mystic Woods) – a sample set is available if you can't decide yet.

Are the scented candles vegan and sustainable?

Yes, the soy wax used is sourced from European cultivation; furthermore, the candles are hand-poured to order rather than being produced in advance.

Where are the scented candles made?

Each candle is hand-poured in our own studio in Nordhorn near the Dutch border – made to order, not in stock.

What should be considered when using scented candles?

As with all scented candles with fragrance oils, skin or eye irritation may occur in individual cases - please refer to the list of ingredients of your desired candle and the warning and safety instructions.

Are candles a good gift idea?

Yes, handmade candles are among the most popular and versatile gift ideas – they suit almost any occasion, from birthdays to housewarmings to thank yous, and are suitable for close friends as well as colleagues. Unlike many mass-produced gifts, hand-poured sculpture and scented candles feel high-quality and personal, especially when they can be individually personalized, for example with a name, dedication, or a handwritten card. Since our candles are made from 100% vegetable rapeseed wax or European soy wax, they are also a conscious, sustainable gift idea for anyone who values vegan and environmentally friendly products.
