This study reported that the daily average use of scented candles is 2,4 h in the living room, 2 h in the adults room and 1,9 h in the kitchen and dining area. This study also reported that
26、 between 7 and 10 candles are used by consumers over a monthly period. To assume a reasonable worst case, an exposure for 4 h per day in an average sized living room of 30 m3and a weekly usage of 4 is suggested. Therefore the following values are default values.
