Peaks rose scent is amazing...

well, my house is 2500-3000 square feet with two floors. Im mostly just wanted the bottom floor to smell... The candle pretty much just scents up a small bathroom after a couple of hours... Ill test out a smaller jar in the next day or so, just havent had a chance this past weekend..

thanks so much for the replies!

Ive tested ginger peach, amish harvest, and banana nut breat. I havent had the air on while burning these, so Im not sure... I do have a VERY big house, but when I was pouring ginger peach the whole house smelled amazing. I can smell it if I put it in the half bathroom with the door shut. I guess I was just hoping for something more...Could it be that I burnt off most of the fragrance when pouring? Is 180 too hot to add fragrance? amish harvest and banana nut arent very strong either for some reason, but when I burn them in my electric oil burner, they are. Ill start using smaller jars to test in soon...

awesome. i believe they are the pint mason jars that im using too. with the lx wicks, there is about 1/4 inch pool after an hour... didnt notice smoking really... it seems like the only time i might get a throw is right after i blow the candle out... ?

This may have been asked before... But Im at my wits end and about to just give up all together. Can someone please tell me the exact wick that would work well with IGI 4630A? I hate to buy more wax. Id like to just get it right with what I have. I have the lx wick sample pack and the zinc core sample pack. Im trying to make the 16ish ounce canning jar candles. And I have been trying 1ounce fo/pound. Seems like Im just wasting the oil and wax because I get nothing as far as scent throw... Ive been using lx 18s. But Im guessing this is wrong. Should I go up or down? Or better yet, which wick will work the best? I would be eternally gratefull! Ive been buying most of my oils from Peak... Also I usually mix in fo at 180 degrees... Forgive me if Im a complete moron.
