Out Like a Light - 6 Swoon-Worthy Scents

Who doesn’t love a good candle? They have soothing properties, add warmth and freshness to your home, and the ceramic vessels and detailed glass votives practically double as decor. With Earth Hour just around the corner, we challenge you to dim the lights and even light that one candle you refrain from lighting in fear that luxe flickering flame and signature scent will come to an end. So whether you’re lighting a candle in support of sustainability, settling into your relaxation ritual, or simply setting the mood for whatever your mood, we are shining the light on our list of swoon-worthy scents.

1. Sophisticated Scents, Diptyque ‘Baies’ Candle - This Parisian luxury perfumer has been transporting light into perfumes through its collection of scented candles since 1961. Their iconic glass votives, unusual designs, and signature scents add a little je ne sais quoi to any space. Naturally, we particularly love the Baies candle for its irresistible freshness that leaves your home smelling like it was dipped in a bouquet of Roses. (Photo credit to The Gryphon)

2. Luxe Lighting, Better World Fragrance House ‘Carby Musk’ Candle - Judging by his sprawling and meticulously designed luxurious Toronto home, Drake knows a thing or two about details and decor. While our homes may not look like his (understatement of the year), they can at least perhaps smell like it, and like him, for that matter, thanks to his Carby scented candle created after his signature scent. Good things come to those who wait, and we can’t wait until his Better World Fragrance House line of candles ‘Comes Thru’ for purchase next.( Photo credit to Revolve)

3. Candles with a Cause, Jo Malone ‘Charity’ Candle - London’s Calling, and we suggest you answer. Known for combining unexpected fragrances, creating unisex scents, and celebrating British style with their simple and elegant design, each candle is hand-poured in the English countryside, adding an ‘air’ of luxury to your home. Jo Malone is an obvious choice for Earth Hour; their charity candle, environmental practices, and dedication to sustainable and social causes just makes scents. (Photo Credit to Jo Malone)

4. Notes of Nostalgia, Cavo ‘After a Good Cry’ Candle - Sometimes a good cry is just what the doctor ordered, but can they also prescribe a good candle with an accompanying playlist? For the times when we’re in our feelings, we suggest self-medicating with Cavo, A Good Cry candle that comes with a curated moody playlist and smells like a hug. Featured in Nylon, Harpers Bizzare US, The Strategist, Marie Claire, and Glamour - we say is nothing to cry about. (Photo Credit to @shop.cavo)

5. Gift Giving, Le Labo ‘Santal 26’ Candle - We live for those unexpected and personal experiences that long outlast the moment. When it comes to the art of gifting, Le Labo nailed it. Not only do their candles add a little personality to your space while making it smell good, but bespoke labels are created on the spot, making your loved one feel good. We love the aristocratic scent of Santal 26, and the gentle, smoky, leathery notes make this our must-get and must-gift candle. (Photo Credit to Le Labo)

6. Statement Scent, Tom Ford 'F*#@ing Fabulous' Candle - This candle is so good censorship is required. The sleek black design is classic Ford, while the sultry scents of sage, bitter lavender, almond, sweet vanilla, finished with bean and leather undertones, seduce the senses. Tom Ford certainly knows how to make a statement, and this candle is, well, f#@*cking fabulous. (Photo Credit to hauteunofficial.com)
