Clean vs. Synthetic Fragrance: What's Really in Your Candle?
Why Choosing Clean Fragrance Oils Matters for Your Space, Body & Spirit

When you light a candle, you’re doing more than just setting a mood—you’re filling your space with something that’s inhaled, absorbed, and energetically felt. That’s why at Luna Rose Candle Co., we’re passionate about using clean fragrance oils that are free from harmful chemicals and toxins.
If you’re looking for non-toxic candles that are beautiful, holistic, and safe for your home, read on.

What Are Clean Fragrance Oils?
Clean fragrance oils are specially formulated without harmful ingredients like phthalates, carcinogens, or reproductive toxins. These oils are safer to breathe, safer to burn, and safer for your space.
At Luna Rose Candle Co., we only use high-quality, phthalate-free fragrance oils from trusted suppliers. These clean scents meet strict safety standards, including California’s Prop 65 and the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) guidelines.

The Risks of Synthetic Fragrances
Many mass-produced candles use synthetic fragrances with undisclosed chemicals. These may include:
• Phthalates – Linked to hormone disruption.
• Carcinogens – Substances that can increase the risk of cancer.
• Reproductive Toxins – Chemicals that may affect fertility or prenatal development.
Burning candles with these ingredients can impact the air you breathe and your long-term health—especially in small spaces.
