Why are (scented) candles so hard to find here?

After being here four months (expat from the US), I can’t quite figure out why scented candles are virtually nowhere to be found except high-end home stores and boutiques, while oil diffusers and scented “nubbules” or whatever-they-ares are plentiful. Any insights?

Edit: Thanks for the insights… I hadn’t even considered earthquakes! This was more out of curiosity than an “OMG MUST HAVE” kind of thing.
