The best scented candles for fall (for every room in your house)

Fall is here, and for those of you that can’t get enough of all things autumn, there are tons of fall-scented and fall-flavored products out there to choose from. If you want your house to smell like the harvest season, you’re sure to fall in love with any and all of these scented candles. Though pumpkin-spice is an iconic flavor and aroma, don’t worry if the infamous latte isn’t your thing. This list is full of plenty of other seasonal scents to get you in the sweater-weather spirit.

Woodwick Fireside Scented Candle

The Woodwick Fireside scented candle smells just like an autumn bonfire and kind of sounds like one too. The wick of this candle is made of wood, so the flame dances and crackles naturally to complete that warm, fireside feel. The hourglass shape creates a wide opening for the scent of the melted wax to escape through, filling the room with up to 130 hours of that cozy fireside scent.

This candle brings all the comforts of fall, and it’s also made with American grown soy wax that’s gluten, lead, and phthalate-free.

Best for: Bedroom or bathroom decor

Bonfires, apple cider, sweaters, cloves, cinnamon, pumpkin, hooded sweatshirts, wool socks — the list could go on.

All of the options above smell great and burn for a long time, ensuring you get the most bang for your buck. Give one a shot next time you want to get cozy. Happy harvest season!
