Halacha Regarding Scented Shabbat Candles
Question
Is it permissible to light scented Shabbat candles? For example, a vanilla-scented candle, etc. (This question arose when someone ran out of regular candles right at the time for lighting Shabbat candles, but had scented ones available). Thank you very much.
Answer
Greetings, It is permissible to light Shabbat candles that emit a pleasant fragrance.
With blessings, Hillel Meirs
