How is rose flower wax different from paraffin wax, beeswax and other common waxes?

Rose flower wax is a botanical extract of the rose flower itself, not a commodity structural wax — it contributes aroma, character and skin benefits that paraffin, beeswax, soy and candelilla waxes cannot provide.

Practical guidance: base waxes (soy, beeswax, paraffin) build the candle or balm structure; rose flower wax replaces or enriches that structure while adding genuine rose fragrance and a premium positioning. A typical premium candle uses 3-10% flower wax; lip balms often use 5-15%. Because our wax is a perfumery material, not a filler, it changes the story you can tell your customers — natural, botanical, single-origin rose.
