Do aromatic/scented candles spoil or go bad?
I have a scented candle that has been sitting in its jar in a closet for over a year. It was put away after only being a burned and melted down a bit. Will it still have its scent if I burn it now, and is it even safe to burn still? The reason I ask about being safe is it seems to have gotten a little soft while in storage, a little spongy-like. I think the warmth of the closet may have affected it.
Candles never "go bad" the scent will stay as strong now as the day it was made, even if it's YEARS old. If it has gotten a bit spongy, it will come back just fine after you've burned it for a while.
