Tips for Best Results

  • 💡Name the scent notes you want visualized; otherwise the image may only show generic candles.
  • 💡Ask for both mood-board and shelf-context prompts so the concept can be reviewed as a brand system.
  • 💡Keep claims off the packaging mockup until legal and product teams approve final copy.
  • 💡Specify vessel material and label finish because candle visuals depend heavily on tactile details.
