your favourite scented candle scent?

Cinnamon is my absolute favorite of all time and gives me such cozy autumn vibes when I smell it!

Wood wicks are especially wonderful for the soothing crackling sounds :love:
 
I LOVE Christmas candle scents. My favorite has to be scent of a pine tree or something like that from a store similar to bath and body works. I love most scents from bath and body works, but seasonal ones are definitely my favorite.
 
There's a candle called coastal woods by mainstay, which describeds a driftwood scent or something or other lol...I like that one a lot. Anything pine, lilac, or fresh cotton/linen.
I'm not a fan of anything food or berry scented really.
 
idk if they still do the range but yankee candle had a barbershop collection and everything in it smelled like heaven, especially the one just called barbershop mmmmm. generally though i like minty/autumnal/winter candles, i'm also rly basic and love anything pumpkin smelling. i hate citrus candles or anything sickly tho
 
Unsurprisingly, I tend to favor autumnal scents, particularly pumpkin and pumpkin-spiced scents. I don't really use candles outside of Autumn and Winter, so I don't tend to explore that far beyond seasonally-appropriate scents.
 
My Homeworx Kitchen Lemon candle is almost gone, so I was going through my stash for the next in line (yes, I have a candle stash, don't judge me). Since fall's almost here, and I'm done with summer, I'm leaning toward something autumn-yummy. I've narrowed it down to Homeworx Pumpkin Caramel Corn (which seriously makes me hungry) or Frostbeard Reading at the Cafe (coffee & chocolate pastry).

I might do the Frostbeard first, since it's a smaller candle, will burn through faster, and I can buy it again. I don't know if that Homeworx scent is still available.

i like a bunch of candles. the past few days i've been burning a fig scented one, but i also like lavender, vanilla, pumpkin, and cinnamon. the more food-scented candles aren't really my favorite, but if i've been gifted one i surely wouldn't not use it !
 
I love Yankee Candles and honestly anything from Home Goods. You can't go wrong with a vanilla scent mixed with something else . I also love baked good candles so much! I love my place smelling like a sweet bakeshop.
 
Used to be a LOT more into scented candles. Sadly not anymore.
A recent one that came to mind would be Trader Joe's Limited Edition (??) Cedar Balsam scented candles.
Excellent charming scent, great prices. (y)
Such intense winter holiday-y feel....very much looking forward to the colder weather, yup.
 
Uhm, I might have been on the Frostbeard site, and I might have been looking at the new fall lineup, and a few might have fallen into my cart.

Hello, Pumpkin Juice (pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon) and Le Cirque des Rêves (caramel popcorn, chestnut).

Honestly sweet scents are my fav ☺ currently burning Strawberry Shortcake from Bath & Body Works, it's so good! The Cactus Blossom scent is a candle I just finished out, sad it's gone :(

Yankee Candle is great, I also love holiday scents from them. Always go with the votive or giant jar candles, never in-between sizes 😆 not a holiday scent, but they discontinued one of my fav scents, Black Coconut. It was coconut, cedarwood and island blossom scents. Such a good smell 😭

Also it was a ritual for my mom to have a Pink Sands Yankee Candle burning at all times as I was growing up.
 
I really liked the smell "Book" by Commodity. They went out of business though :(

Alternative favorite smell: Coffee. Really reminds me of waking up and smelling my parents' coffee as they got ready for the day!
 
I like either sweet pea or vanilla. Anything else is alright, it just cannot be that overpowering.
 
omg i truly missed the scent "baked cookies" from bath & body works. that was the best scent ever!!! ):
i love anything vanilla scented or clean like fresh linen/cotton as well... my addiction with candles is not a joke.
i wait for huge sales in order to bulk buy them because i usually like burning them throughout the year. it makes my house feel more cozy.
 
i have a yankee candle that is tonka bean and pumpkin scented and i barely use it because it smells so good and they arent available in my country
 
Black Cherry Merlot and I don't know what it is but it just gives me nostalgia
 
I usually don't do candles, but I do have a couple I keep on hand just incase the electricity goes out or if someone drops a stink bomb lol. It is almost always cinnamon one. If it isn't that, then it is a cinnamon apple or some sort of Christmas scent which, you guessed it, would have cinnamon in it. lol. :)
