If you’re always noticing subtle hints while out and about that holiday shopping is just around the corner, and you’ve already begun working on the plaid section of your wardrobe, there are simply no better tale-tell signs that fall has arrived. The reasonable thing to do next is to set the mood at home with the best fall-scented candles, because sometimes, the best way to set your intentions for the season starts within your own place of peace.
There simply isn’t such a thing as a candle lover who doesn’t thrive during the fall, as that’s when brands come out with their best scents, and sometimes (with the popularity of the season in mind), their biggest collections. If you’re overwhelmed with the number of options there are to sift through (and there are, indeed, a lot), some of the key classic fall scents to keep an eye out for are pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and woody scents, for starters. To fill your home with a truly unique fall smell, you may want to also explore the overlooked realm of leather scents. Of course, we’ve rounded up all of that and more ahead. Keep scrolling for the best-smelling, and cutest-packaged candles of the season.
