Herbal candles

Anybody have any experience with making herbal scented candles? I was just wondering what some of your preferences are in terms of technique, and if you find essential oil or whole herb infusions produces a better result in the finished product.

I prefer using essential oil for making my scented candles, as it is easier mix. However, if the wax isn't hot/thin enough when you as the oil, it won't mix. ^_^ Just my opinion! Oh you can also dip out mold candles. Dipping is the classic way, but if you have a mold (Empty tea light hold works) it is easier to just pour the hit wax into it and let it chill.
