Burning a scented candle is an easy way to relax. It can instantly set the mood for an evening at home, curled up with a book or in front of a movie, or give you a delicious-smelling start to your day. In all cases, you want the scent to be one you love that’s not too overpowering. But which do you pick from the thousands of options?
We searched through the sandalwoods, citruses, vanillas and jasmines to curate an edit of burnable waxes that’ll suit any types of tastes. Ahead, you’ll find a selection of our favourite scented candles to light, with the hopes that they never run out.
Coconut & Lime Large Candle
Peppermint Grove is an affordable pick for quality home fragrances and the Coconut & Lime Large Candle ($44.95) is no exception. This burnable combines scents of coconut, lush lime and pineapple — big pina colada vibes. You’ll also get a few hints of vanilla and musk in the mix too.
Burnt Sugar & Bergamot 3-Wick Soy Scented Candle
This Burnt Sugar & Bergamot 3 Wick Soy Scented Candle ($44.99) from Dusk’s soy candle range is truly divine. Think sugary vanilla praline melts into soft pools of chocolate, then rounded out with bergamont. Delish. And almost good enough to eat.
Santal 66
This Santal 66 Candle ($60), is made up of sandalwood, Virginia cedar, cardamom, violet, papyrus, leather, amber and iris. The candle itself is natural soy wax. Poured and packaged in Melbourne, Scent Home Australia’s range of candles, oils and diffusers are some of the most affordable in the local sustainable market.
Pomegranate Noir Home Candle
Jo Malone’s Pomegranate Noir Home Candle ($110) is a combination of fruity and matured. This candle plays with notes of pomegranate and smoky guaiacwood to create an unexpectedly sweet aroma. You’ll get approximately 45 hours of burn time from this 200g delight.
Happy Place 3-Wick Candle
If you’re looking for a new citrus scent to fill up your space, consider the Happy Place 3-Wick Candle ($68 USD). The main notes you’ll find are grapefruit and lemon zest that playfully work in hints of jasmine flower. This one is a delightful daytime scent to have burning during your weekends at home.
Wellness Himalayan Salt & Rosewater Scented Candle
If you’re looking for a strong scent to fill the house, Sephora customers recommend the Wellness Himalayan Salt & Rosewater Scented Candle ($84). “It smells exactly like fresh roses. I love the scent! My guests compliment me on how great my home smells,” one said.
Cinnamon & Green Apple Large Soy Candle
Housed in a beautiful glass cup, the Cinnamon & Green Apple Candle ($39.95) will fill your space with the scrumptious scent of apple pie. Yum. It’s made from natural soy and promises up to 60 hours of burn time.
Sunsets in Capri
It wouldn’t be a complete candle edit without a find from Glasshouse Fragrances. The award-winning Sunsets in Capri Candle ($54.95) has a mix of white peach and jasmine. The aroma is topped off with notes of sea breezes to make you feel like you’re in a tropical oasis.
Guava and Lychee Sorbet Madison Candle
ECOYA’s Guava and Lychee Sorbet Madison Candle ($49.95) smells like summer. The fragrance is fresh and fruity but not sickly sweet. According to reviews on the Myer website, it has an even surface burn and lasts for a long time.
