10 scents I’m immediately adding to my cart
Bath & Body Works
If sniffing through 140 fragrances to find the best candle scents sounds like a lot of work, it’s because it is. But don’t fret—as someone who shops and sniffs candles for a living, I’ve got your and your nose’s back! I’ve found the 10 must-buy candle fragrances at Bath & Body Works, so let’s dive in.
For starters, I’m reaching for anything lavender-scented. French Lavender is one of the new fragrances dropping on Candle Day, and I’m adding it to my cart.
As for Bath & Body Works’ holiday collection, my favorites include Sweater Weather, Fresh Balsam (your home will smell like a Christmas tree farm), Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla, and Falling Flurries (a subtle mix of eucalyptus, sandalwood, and pear).
My favorite nostalgic fragrance is Japanese Cherry Blossom, and I always stock up on the scent Sun-Drenched Linen, which is the perfect candle to light after a long day of cleaning.
My final three honorable mentions go to You’re The One (this is also one of my favorite body mist fragrances), Bergamot Waters, and Maghony Teakwood Intense (if you prefer manly fragrances).
