Best Scented Candles
Candles are my absolute favorite splurge purchase. I’m always burning a candle when I’m home, and adding another to my cart to try out. I thought I’d put together a list of all of my essential candles for every price range so you can make your space smell like a dream!
Diptique: When it comes to candles, Diptique is the holy grail. They are definitely on the higher end of price, but SO worth it. I only own a few, and burn them on very rare occasions but when I do I appreciate every second of them. My top scents are Baies and Roses. This is one of those ideal candles to ask for as a gift and savor for a long time!
My favorite Diptique scents: Baies and Roses
Otherland Candle Co: I absolutely adore Otherland because they’re really fancy, but not anywhere near the price point of some of the most boujee candles. They smell incredible, have adorable packaging, and you can get packs with multiple scents. Their packs are a great gift!
My favorite Otherland scents: Rattan, Chandelier, Daybed
Anthropologie: We can all agree that the best feeling is walking into Anthro because of the smell that fills the store, right? That scent is the Capri Volcano candle. I love that this one comes in so many different ways (candles, diffusers, hand creams, and soaps!). It’s not super expensive, and lasts for a long time because it’s huge. A must have for every candle collection!
My favorite Anthropologie scents: Capri Volcano Candle
Paddywax: They have some of the prettiest containers, and amazing scent to go with them! My go-to for candle gifts.
My favorite Paddywax scents: Amber & Smoke, Peony & Lavender, Rosewater & Santal
Abode: A small female-owned shop in Long Beach with the loveliest candles. I love how large their candles are, and they all smell amazing!
My favorite Abode scents: Cozy Vibes and Golden Hour
Yield Design: Do yourself a favor and get the incense too–it’s next level.
My favorite Yield scents: Poivre, Sandalwood, Hinoki, Palo Santo
Le Labo: I adore Le Labo’s perfumes so of course I had to include their candles. I love how substantial the size of these candles are, and they make a great gift!
My favorite Le Labo scents: Santal 26 and Palo Santo 14
IKEA: We all need some budget candles in our life for those everyday moments where it’s not special enough to light the expensive ones. That’s when the IKEA vanilla candles come in handy. It’s simple, sweet and guilt-free at $5 a candle. I love burning these throughout the house on the regular.
My favorite IKEA scents: SINNLIG vanilla candle
Target: They have seriously upped their candle game lately. You can definitely pick up a dreamy candle on your next Target trip without breaking the bank. Their Threshold, Project 62, and Magnolia collection have some serene scents for under $13. The Island Moonlight candle is a good Anthropologie Capri candle dupe too!
My favorite Target scents: Vetiver + Cedarwood and Noir
