Preparation and Evaluation of an Ayurvedic Clove Scented Candle

Abstract:

The creation and assessment of an Ayurvedic clove-scented candle utilizing natural and herbal ingredients is the main goal of this research. Syzygium aromaticum, the technical name for clove, is well known in Ayurveda for its antibacterial, antifungal, and medicinal qualities. To provide a safe and environmentally sustainable product, the candle was made with natural wax (such as beeswax or soy wax), cotton wick, clove essential oil, and appropriate herbal additions. In order to maintain fragrance stability, the wax was melted at a regulated temperature, a calibrated amount of clove essential oil was added, and the mixture was then poured into molds with wicks positioned correctly. The candles were assessed for appearance, burning time, aroma preservation, uniformity of burning, and smoke output after solidification.
