Bring Fall Feelings Into Your Home With These 11 Candles
Fall is in the air and nothing is better than curling up on your couch and lighting a candle. An instant mood-lifter, scented candles are perfect for bringing a bit of fall indoors during these stressful times of social distancing. Fill your apartment and work-from-home station with the woody or musky fragrance of your choice. From Christian Dior’s Bois Brûle to Boy Smell’s Cowboy K*ush, here are eleven different ways to experience fall’s aromatic draw in your living space.
CHRISTIAN DIOR Bois Brûlé
"The Bois Brûlé candle is an exercise in style that conveys the power of precious woods, a reminiscence of the log fires Christian Dior was so fond of." - François Demachy, Dior Perfumer-Creator
MAISON LUIS MARIE NO.02 - LE LONG FOND
Maison Louis Marie composes delicate scents to enchant your lifestyle with a botanical tradition since 1792. This scent is a savory mixture of hinoki wood accord underlined by notes of cedarwood and patchouli with a strong amber character.
COMME DES GARÇONS 2
High-fashion houses having their own line of signature fragrances is a long standing practice, but when it comes to Comme des Garçons, did anyone really expect them to bottle some milquetoast, light floral scents and call it a day? This candle will fill your room with notes of incense, white smoke, saffron flowers, nutmeg, kumquat, fresh crinkly mint, vetiver roots, mahogany wood, and leather.
Diptyque Ambre
Housed in a cognac-colored glass container, the Ambre Scented Candle by diptyque is a beautiful focal point for any room. Its warm, elegant scent combines notes of woods, vetiver and patchouli enhanced with radiant aniseed, insolent spices, mysterious incense, cistus and tonka bean.
Brooklyn Candle Studio Santal Noir
A luxurious fragrance inspired by nature's bounty, Hinoki Cypress floats above a rich heart of cedar and pine and over a warm base of vetiver and sandalwood. Evoking the sultry masculinity of earth and wood, these hand-poured candles in black matte glass glow gracefully and beautifully for a sensually tranquil experience in any room in the house.
BYREDO Bibliothèque
After traveling to his mother's hometown in India, BYREDO founder Ben Gorham became intrigued by scent and memory. Mentored by world-renowned perfumers, he started his line of luxury fragrances in Stockholm in 2006, focusing on raw, high-quality ingredients. Today, BYREDO candles, perfumes and more are known as much for their minimalist, stylistic packaging as they are for their irresistible scents. Sheltered from the passage of time, libraries have the power to teleport us to a world in suspension. The velvety quality of the paper embodied in a touch of peach, plum and vanille, and the omnipresent patchouli like a backbone that runs through the composition.
The Hometown Co. FARRAH
Meet FARRAH, the first candle available in the Bare collection. These candles are all about the beauty and strength in women. When creating this candle I wanted to choose a name with a positive meaning behind it. Farrah means “joy and happiness.” As women I believe that feeling happy means feeling beautiful.
Cire Trudon Madeleine
Pay homage to the accomplished horsewoman Madeleine de Maupin with this scented candle from Cire Trudon. It combines notes of clove, lavender, iris & rose with heady base notes of patchouli, tobacco and leather for an opulent finish. The environmentally friendly vegetable wax is poured into a hand blown green vessel which is decorated with the signature gold label. Presented in a chic Cire Trudon box this luxurious candle makes a fabulous gift idea for any occasion.
Heretic Dirty Grass
Heretic Dirty Grass Candle is a soy candle with a 100% natural unbleached cotton lead-free wick. This is the candle version of Heretic's best-selling Dirty Grass parfum, with a fresh, green, smoky scent and relaxing properties. This luxury candle utilizes the calming effects of full-spectrum, hemp derived CBD oil with a scent that aims to sooth the mind and ground the soul.
BOY SMELLS COWBOY K*SH
The scent of Cowboy K*sh is akin to “enjoying a joint at a rousing rodeo.” This tumbleweed of a scent is a dusty accumulation of suede and saffron, with puffs of pot and patchouli floating through. It has some dust, it’s dry-earthy, it’s grounded. It’s a warm, well-worn saddle of a scent.
The signature matte black candle fills your room with cedarwood and sandalwood combined with notes of smokey amber and oud in a broody, full-bodied fragrance. It smells like a campfire and lasts forever, filling the room with the perfect amount of scent. It's not overpowering and makes the room feel warm and cozy.
