37 Luxury Winter Candles To Light Up Your Home

14th November 2024 | By Ashling McCloy

If you’re looking to add warmth or ambience to a room, there’s nothing more indulgent than the rich aroma of a designer home fragrance. With cold nights taking hold, enrich your surroundings with our pick of the most aromatic scents this season. We’ve picked our favourite winter candles…

Whether you’re hosting the perfect dinner party or simply cosying up on the sofa to binge-watch the latest Netflix show, there’s something utterly luxurious about lighting up an expensive-smelling winter candle. The hints of bergamot, cinnamon or mandarin wafting through your living room are undeniably atmospheric. Nostalgic notes evoke incredible feelings of comfort and well-being, especially as we battle through January.

Candles are treats, but also the most beautiful gifts. Knowing this, creators have pushed the boundaries with their designs, in some cases collaborating with talented artists, such as the Polkra x Katie Scott collection. While designer Paul Smith looked to his memories of trips to the Nottinghamshire countryside to create his latest home fragrance, Storyteller.  With notes of Madagascan clove bud, intense woods, and patchouli the scent is smoky, woody, and warming to evoke wintertime evenings by the fireside.

There’s no denying our obsession with luxe candles. From the freshness of pine trees or snow-capped mountains to the smokey aromas of log fires or sweet hints of vanilla, the choice has never been more tantalising or decadent.

Bjork and Berries originates from the northern part of Sweden. The brand’s philosophy is inspired by the country’s ever-changing seasons. They use the best responsibly sourced ingredients nature has to offer to ensure the finest quality formulas with minimal ingredients yet maximum fragrance.

Bjork & Berries, nostalgi scented candle, €65
