It’s officially cozy season, which means it would be rude not to light a candle or two (or three). For best results, choose something that will instantly fill your home with festive joy: spices are a safe bet (think Nutmeg, Clove and Cinnamon) as are deliciously sweet scents (Peppermint, Chocolate and Caramel are a few particularly irresistible options).
Here at Beauty Pie HQ, candles are somewhat of an obsession, meaning that we have an array of different scents burning throughout the year, each one expertly picked to create the perfect ambiance depending on the occasion. Plus, each one has been made from a potent blend of different high-grade mineral waxes for excellent throw and even burn (60 hours of it, in fact). Here’s our round up of the very best candles to light this holiday season:
For every day joy: Bitter Orange & Blackcurrant Luxury Scented Candle
The fragrance was developed in Grasse, France - the birthplace of perfumery – so you already know it’s going to be GOOD. The perfumer used layers of Essential Oils - Lemon, Grapefruit and Orange Citrus - for zing, and a gorgeous mix of Blackcurrant, Clove, Nutmeg and Chilli, which in our humble opinion, gives it that spicy warmth perfect for this time of year.
For an evening treat: Hot Chocolate & Peppermint Luxury Scented Candle
Like mouth-watering hot chocolate, all over your house. With a rich Chocolate top, a burst of fresh Peppermint in the middle, and a long, languorous bed of Butter, Cocoa and Vanilla beneath, it is meltingly moreish. We love to burn this in the evening, paired with an actual hot chocolate, as a double-whammy of wintertime treats before bed and guaranteed sweet dreams.
For the Grinches: Pomegranate & Baies Rose Luxury Scented Candle
There’s always that one person who “doesn’t like the holidays”. We have a candle for them too. It’s not technically a festive scent (the top notes are a hazy halo of Baies Rose and Artemisia, melting into a sexy, sybaritic heart of Pomegranate) but it still has just enough spice (Cinnamon, Clove blended with Cashmere Wood and Patchouli) to warm things up.
