How many times have you found yourself in the uncertainty of having to choose a gift? We are looking for something personal, meaningful, that does not end up forgotten in a drawer. An object capable of communicating affection, care and attention. Often, the solution is simpler and brighter than we think: a scented candle. Not a simple piece of wax, but a real concentrate of emotions, a sensory portal capable of transforming an environment and evoking precious memories. Giving a candle means giving an atmosphere, a moment of relaxation, a break from the daily hustle and bustle. It is an invitation to take care of yourself, to create a small wellness ritual.
In the world of room fragrances, however, not all candles are the same. The difference lies in the quality of the ingredients, in the complexity of the fragrances and in the craftsmanship with which they are created. The candles that we present to you on Assperr.it are made with natural vegetable wax and cotton wicks, for clean and safe burning, and their fragrances are designed to accompany you on a unique olfactory journey. From the pristine peaks of the Dolomites to the most intimate trails of our emotions, each collection is a world to discover. This guide will accompany you step by step in choosing the perfect gift, a gift that speaks to the heart and smells the soul.
Why a Scented Candle Is More Than Just a Gift
The Power of Smell: A Direct Link with Emotions and Memories
The sense of smell is the most primal and powerful of our senses. A perfume can instantly take us back in time, to a childhood memory, to a beloved place, alongside a special person. Giving a candle with a particular fragrance means associating that scent with you, creating an invisible but lasting bond. Every time the person who receives it will light that candle, they will think of you and the moment they received it. It is a gift that continues to give emotions over time.
Creating a Wellness Sanctuary at Home
In the era of constant connection, our home has become our refuge, the place to unplug and recharge our energies. A scented candle is a very powerful tool for defining the atmosphere of a space. A warm, dancing light, combined with an enveloping fragrance, can transform a normal living room into a cozy nest, a bathroom into a private spa, a bedroom into an oasis of peace. It's a small everyday luxury that improves the quality of life.

Practical Guide: How to Make the Most of Your Candle
To ensure a long life and optimal performance for your candle, just follow a few simple steps. Giving a candle and even these tips shows even greater care.
The First Ignition is Sacred
The first time you light the candle, let it burn long enough for the entire top layer of wax to melt, until it reaches the edges of the container. This process, called 'pool creation', avoids the annoying 'tunnel' effect and ensures that the candle burns evenly throughout its lifespan.
Check the Wick!
Before each ignition, cut the wick to about 5 mm in height. A wick that is too long can cause a flame that is too high, black smoke and blackening of the container. A wick of the right size ensures a clean, controlled flame and a slower burn.
Positioning and Safety
Always place the candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts (which may cause it to burn unevenly), flammable materials, and out of reach of children and pets. Never leave it on unattended.
Extra tip!
To blow out the candle, avoid blowing on it. This can cause liquid wax to splash and cause the wick to smoke. Use a special smoker or gently dip the wick into the molten wax with a metal tool and then straighten it out. In this way, the wick will also be waxed and ready for the next ignition.
