No hot scent throw, werid burn

Heya guys!

I made my first batch of candles about a month ago using a soy and coconut wax blend. I made five candles and let two cure for two weeks and burnt the others about 3 days after I poured them.

The ones which cured didn't have any hot scent throw and the ones which I didn't cure had no scent throw either...I am pretty lost as I measured the correct ratios and followed the temperature guidelines for the wax and fragrence oils.

Does anyone have any ideas why:

a) why the candles didn't smell when burning

b) why one of the candles tunneled (pictured) ....i thought it could have been the wick but I found a photo of the candle when I bought it first (reused the jar) and the wick was placed as I had placed it
