There could be several reasons why your homemade candles aren't emitting a strong fragrance. Firstly, you might not be using enough fragrance oil; typically, 6-10% of the wax's weight is recommended. Secondly, the quality of fragrance oil matters. Lower quality oils may not give off strong scents. Thirdly, the scent might not be dispersing properly if you're adding the fragrance oil when the wax is too hot or too cool. Finally, the type of wax can also affect the scent. Some waxes, like soy wax, don't carry scent as well as paraffin wax. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for the best results.
