candle warmer

Wax heating plate

A candle warmer is a small electric device that heats a candle from below or above, releasing its fragrance without an open flame.

It typically consists of a warming plate or lamp that gently melts the wax: I use a candle warmer instead of lighting candles because I have cats.

Safer than burning, though the candle lasts longer since no wax is consumed by a wick.
