In around 1930, a French chemist named Gattefosse stumbled upon the soothing effects of lavender oil while he was at work in his laboratory. After that, Gattefosse was so impressed and fascinated that he actually researched and documented the healing properties of many essential oils. This started off a great demand for essential oils in that time. And since then the demand has been growing consistently with every year. This rising demand has led to the manufacture of a variety of aromatherapy products. One of the popular new forms of aromatherapy comes in the form of aromatherapy soy candles or aromatherapy scented candle depending on what the consumer is looking for.

Wholesale aromatherapy candles are also available in the Indian market today as using candles aromatherapy is a fast-growing trend. This is because candles are easier to use than massage oils. One can simply light them to disperse the aroma in the room where one may be seated with company or watching television. One doesn't have to make time in his or her busy schedule to inhale the vapors by using such candles.
