As summer approaches, the desire to spend time outdoors grows: terraces, gardens, and balconies become spaces for relaxation and socializing. However, this time of year also brings a recurring issue—insects. To handle it in a natural and refined way, more and more people are turning to a simple yet effective solution: the citronella candle. Oniusa Venezia offers a version that combines repellent power with a refined aesthetic, making it a true decorative piece. In this article, we’ll explore why it’s a must-have for your summer evenings.
1. Why the Citronella Candle is a Summer Must-Have
With the arrival of the warm season come outdoor moments, dinners on the terrace, reading in the garden, and sunset aperitifs. But heat also brings back insects—especially mosquitoes. This is where the citronella candle comes in: a natural remedy that’s increasingly appreciated for its ability to blend functionality with style. Citronella is an essential oil extracted from tropical plants, renowned for its insect-repelling properties. Its fresh, intense scent is pleasant for people but keeps mosquitoes at bay. It’s a safe option for homes and families, and a great alternative to chemical sprays or electric devices. Used in scented candles, it offers a discreet yet elegant solution to protect your spaces.
2. Functionality Meets Design: The Citronella Candle by Oniusa Venezia
In the world of Oniusa, even a functional product like the citronella candle becomes a design object. The version proposed by our brand is made to be displayed, experienced, and appreciated. It’s not just a useful accessory, but a true home décor element that adds personality and style to your spaces. The 200g candle comes in a minimal yet elegant container, in line with Oniusa’s aesthetic: accessible everyday luxury, inspired by the art and balance of Venice. The fragrance is crafted with carefully selected essential oils, 100% Made in Italy, and releases a fresh, green scent that immediately evokes cleanliness and harmony. It’s perfect for use in living rooms, verandas, gardens, or during al fresco dinners.
3. Where to Use Your Citronella Candle for Best Results
The citronella candle is highly versatile and can be used in a variety of settings to maximize its protective effect. Outdoors, it’s ideal for gardens, terraces, and balconies: placed on a table or near common paths, it creates a natural olfactory barrier that discourages insects. Indoors, it’s useful in countryside homes or humid areas where insects are more frequent. The fragrance released by the candle helps maintain a fresh and pleasant atmosphere, even without being constantly lit. For best results, light the citronella candle at least 30 minutes before using the protected area. You can also use multiple candles to cover larger areas or to create a warm and welcoming ambiance.
4. A Sustainable Lifestyle with Oniusa’s Candle
