How many candles will 1 ounce of fragrance oil make?


I am just getting into the hobby of making my own candles and I was wanting to know how many candles in the medium size mason jar can you scent with 1 ounce of fragrance. Any other advice would be great too. Thank you!

    I found this info at a candle making site:

    You’ll want to experiment with the amount of fragrance oil. Some candlemakers use anywhere from 3 to 10% fragrance per pound of wax, some measure in tablespoons and use from 1 to 3 tablespoons per pound, and some measure in ounces and use from 1/4 oz. to 1/2 oz. per pound.
