I've been making my own candles for some time, partly due to the cost but also because so many of the candles we buy are full of chemicals, and based around paraffin wax. I've created a range of candles that are 90% soy wax and 10% rapeseed wax - plant based waxes that burn well. Using premium fragrance oils, and pure essential oils. The wick is cotton, pre-dipped in wax, and allows for a long burn.
