This scented candle jar mockup is one of the simpler ways to present a scent range or a candle jar label convincingly.
Useful for candle makers as much as for home fragrance brands. A small tip: metallic and glossy finishes look best with a little contrast in the label; very flat pastel labels can look printed on paper.
It’s also a good way to compare a few label directions side by side without printing anything.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.
How do I put my artwork on the candle?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
Can I change the liquid or container colour?
Most bottle, can and cup mockups keep the container colour on its own layer. Liquid colour, where visible, is usually adjustable too.
Why does the download open another website?
