It depends on how big the candle is. The recommended amount of fragrance ranges from 3 to 8% by weight. A good starting point is 1 ounce per pound (6% by weight). It's important to check the maximum fragrance amount the particular wax you are using will hold. Usually if you go above that amount in the wax, it will not perform properly.
