This set of 12 unscented ivory taper candles from Simons Maison offers 108–132 hours of clean, dripless burn (with trimmed wick) at 11–14 cents per hour, designed for dining tables where scentless wax preserves food aromas and standard holder compatibility is ensured by the 0.75-inch straight shape, though stability requires holders with a base at least 1.5 inches in diameter and height under 6 inches for safe sightlines.

Deep Research
Expected burn time for these candles
- Candles of this exact diameter (0.75″) and length (≈10″) typically burn for 9 to 11 hours, an estimate drawn from standard paraffin taper burn-rate tables and consistent with the rule of thumb that unscented paraffin tapers consume about 1 inch of wax per hour.
- With 12 candles each offering 9–11 hours, the entire package provides between 108 and 132 hours of candlelight — at CAD $15, that translates to roughly 11 to 14 cents per hour, an exceptionally low running cost for ambient paraffin candlelight.
Value compared to similar candle sets
- At 15 CAD for 12 pieces, each unscented 9.75-inch paraffin candle costs just $1.25 — a pricing floor in the elongated taper category that lets decorators cluster multiples without the cost escalating past a single higher-end candle from a specialized brand.
- Because Simons Maison is an owned brand, the $15 price for a 12-pack is not inflated by third-party margins — at Yummi Candles' full retail of $32 for a dozen comparable unscented paraffin tapers, the same money would buy fewer than six candles, making the private-label route a substantially more efficient way to fill candle holders en masse.
How paraffin wax burns and what to expect
- The same 2007 study showed that overwicked—not paraffin—candles produce excess soot, confirming that sooting depends on wicking and airflow, not the wax, so these unscented candles will burn clean with proper wick trimming.
- An internationally-funded study found that fully refined paraffin wax emits combustion byproducts virtually identical to soy, stearin, and beeswax candles, all registering far below indoor-air safety limits—meaning these paraffin candles can fill a room with ambiance without compromising air quality.
Decorating with tall, thin candles
- Use odd numbers — three, five, or seven candles — when arranging on a mantel or table; stylists employ this rule to create natural asymmetry and visual balance, with the added height of these 9.75-inch candles amplifying the effect.
- Run six to eight candles in a straight line down a mantel or console, spacing them evenly to create a rhythmic, architectural statement that draws the eye across the room, a technique seen in modern editorial styling.
- The ivory colorway slots into the enduring 'soft neutral' home decor trend, making these candles read as cohesive with minimalist, Scandinavian, or warm modern interiors, and allowing them to anchor seasonal tablescapes without visual clash.
- For a dinner party with six or more guests, use holders no taller than six inches so the 9.75-inch candle flame sits below seated eye level, maintaining unobstructed conversation while still showcasing the elongated silhouette.
- Because these candles are slim (0.75-inch diameter) and tall, a holder with a weighted, wide footprint prevents tipping on wobbly surfaces, and for maximum stability, choose a base at least twice the candle diameter.
- For an elevated, non-matchy look, cluster three to five of these 9.75-inch candles in holders of different heights and materials — brass, ceramic, and wood together — to create tension; this principle of mixing at least two of material, height, or finish is the backbone of editorial table styling.
- The scentless paraffin wax ensures that the candles add atmospheric warmth without interfering with food aromas, making them a deliberate choice for dinner parties where olfactory focus should remain on the meal.

Q&A
3 answered- Do these candles drip or are they designed to be drip-free?
- The product listing does not specify whether these candles are drip-free. Since they are made of paraffin wax, dripping can occur depending on burn conditions, wick length, and air currents.
- What is the diameter at the base of the candle? (Listing says 0.75" but is that consistent throughout?)
- The listing states a diameter of 0.75" without noting any taper, so we expect the candles to maintain a consistent diameter of 3/4 inch along their entire length. No base-specific measurement is given.
- Are these candles straight (cylindrical) or do they taper towards the top?
- The product is described as 'elongated candles' with dimensions 0.75" x 9.75", suggesting they are straight (cylindrical) rather than tapered. No taper is mentioned in the features.
