Aroma Naturals’ line of fragrant, hand-crafted candles is made from 100% pure plant aromas, according to the company. They also incorporate VegePure natural vegetable waxes, and use lead-free wicks. Candle scents are grouped by the aroma produced, which depends on the essential oil combination used. Concentrated essential oils are extracted from the cells of plants with steam distillation.
