Alcohol will dissolve most waxes if the soap doesn't work.
Years ago I was asked by a local church what they could do to eliminate or reduce the soot buildup on walls and ceilings over the votive candle areas. After some research, I found that candles made from pure beeswax do not soot like other grades of wax made from petroleum byproducts. They cost a little more but save on cleaning and restoration costs.
