Product Insights
The Summer Balm Scented Candle from Simons Maison offers a 35-hour burn time from a 90% soy-vegetable wax blend that burns cleaner than paraffin (90% less soot, no benzene or toluene) with a moderate, consistent scent throw of earthy geranium, lemon, and patchouli. However, its 5 h/oz burn rate is below pure soy's 7–9 h/oz, increasing cost per hour by 5–8%—at a sale price of $14.99 ($0.43/hr vs. $0.40/hr for pure soy)—and the essential oils pose a toxicity risk to pets if ingested.
Verified claims

- Wick trimming, 2-4 h sessions, and first-burn wax memory are key to the 35-hour burn time.

- Burn time
