Hudson Mahives Taper Candles

Yes. Because these tapers are made from 100% pure beeswax without synthetic fragrances or additives, they are hypoallergenic and generally well-tolerated by those sensitive to traditional scented candles.

When properly maintained, these candles are designed for a clean, smoke-free burn. To ensure this, keep the cotton wick trimmed to about a quarter-inch before each use and avoid placing them in drafty areas.

These candles have a very subtle, natural honey aroma derived directly from the beeswax. It is not an overpowering artificial fragrance, but rather a faint, warm scent that is noticeable primarily when you are close to the candle.

Yes, these are designed as standard-sized tapers. However, because they are handcrafted, there may be slight variations in diameter, so you may need to gently shave the base or use a bit of beeswax to secure them if your holder is particularly wide.

Unlike paraffin, which is a petroleum byproduct, these are made from 100% natural beeswax. They burn cleaner, last longer, and do not release the synthetic chemicals or soot often associated with paraffin options.
