We surveyed our in-house team of scent specialists (our staff) to test the scent intensity, or “Scentensity,” of each candle when lit (aka hot throw).

On a scale of 1 to 5, five being extremely strong, our scent specialists evaluated the scentensity of a standard 8.5oz candle so you can make an informed selection.

Of course, Magnums will roughly have three times the intensity of an 8.5oz candle and 3oz votive minis have a third the strength, compared to a standard sized candle.
