With the holidays just, a short way off in the future, they’ll be here before we know it. Sometimes it makes my head spin how quickly everything comes and goes, but one way to slow it all down and take it all in, is to light up my favorite candle and give myself a moment to reflect. I love this time of year, the shift from warm days and nights to when that first chill in the air seems to come out of nowhere. The air feels different, smells different and reminds us that change is once again coming. I love the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/BarrFirGrapefruit/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Barr-Co. Fir & Grapefruit</a>for this time of year because it has the brightness of the grapefruit zest, and then introduces the woodsy notes of fir oils. It’s like having one foot still in summer and the other moving forward into the festive holiday season. The best part is it smells incredible, don’t let the Fir throw you, this is a great year-round candle but oh so apropos to this time of year!</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 16px;">
The vessel is a nice <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/BarrFirGrapefruit/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">heavy glass tumbler and it’s a full 20 oz size</a>. It’s unique, not just your basic straight sided candle glass. It looks great in the kitchen, but honestly, the simplicity of it would work great just about anywhere. I plan to use it for make-up brushes on my bathroom vanity once the candle is gone. But until then, this is one candle I’m going to thoroughly enjoy! The cold throw is excellent, just sitting unlit gives a nice scent to my small bedroom. The warm throw is superb, I love how it fills my entire space. </div>

I didn’t even have to take this one out of the box before I noticed the sweet juicy orange and spicy warm <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/trapp-orange-clove-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">clove scent</a> and I was immediately thrown back to 2<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 12.000000953674316px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">nd</span> grade in Miss Trouts classroom. We made Orange Clove Pomanders for our mothers for Christmas, I know, that’s quite a throwback and a random thing to bring up, but you know what they say about fragrance and its most powerful aspect, is its ability to resurrect long forgotten memories! Needless to say, the cold throw on this candle is superb, it will tinge a room with the sweet smell of fall and the approaching holidays merely by sitting unlit on the counter. Light it up and wow! The warmth of the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/trapp-orange-clove-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">clove and cinnamon</a> mingle so beautifully and take me straight into fall. If I didn’t live in Southern California where it is still in the low 80’s, I would light a fire, pour a nice glass of Cabernet and snuggle up in that big chunky knit throw that so rarely makes an appearance in my living room. But at least I can enjoy the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/trapp-orange-clove-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">scent of fall</a>, as I sit in my cutoffs enjoying another warm and sunny day with a chilled rosé close at hand.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px; text-align: justify;">
The whole walk down memory lane that this candle inspired took me off on a bit of a journey. I was looking up all of the different ways to make Pomanders. Even Martha Stewart has a video on how to make Pomanders for holiday gifts. Trust me, the ones I made back in 2<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 12.000000953674316px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">nd</span> grade looked nothing like hers! I also learned that Pomanders date back as far as the 13<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 12.000000953674316px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">th</span> century and were actually worn or carried about, and some consider them an early form of Aromatherapy. I think for me, I’ll just stick with the Trapp <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/trapp-orange-clove-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Orange Clove Candle</a>, it’s easy, I just light it and my whole place takes on the magical veil of Autumn.</div>

Golden Chestnut: A Gourmand Masterpiece by LAFCO</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
Another gem from <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-golden-chestnut/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">LAFCO, Golden Chestnut</a> is quite exceptional. It’s in a light amber tinted glass with a slight iridescent shimmer, it’s very striking. So, truth be told, I’m not a big fan of gourmand fragrances. I know, I know, so many people are, and particularly this time of year, gourmand candles are literally everywhere. But that being said, Golden Chestnut isn’t just another gourmand candle, and I LOVE it!! </div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
I must admit, I do have a special place in my heart for <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-golden-chestnut/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Chestnut</a>, probably because way back in the day, I created the Illume Roasting Chestnut candle. It was based on my experiences of living in Italy and around the holidays the streets would fill with the fragrance of roasting chestnuts, and as we all know fragrance = memories. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
<a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-golden-chestnut/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">LAFCO’s Golden Chestnut</a> is as all of their fragrances tend to be, sophisticated. In the description they call it a “Savory Gourmand” which to me calls out the deep exotic spices that make this gourmand candle something very special. The full description reads “A fresh aromatic blend of balsam, pine needles and exotic spices are highlighted by tangy lemon zest for a seasonal embrace. <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-golden-chestnut/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Warm chestnuts and hazelnut cream</a> create a tantalizing presence at the heart, while white cedar, cistus, patchouli and vetiver provide depth. Vanilla sugar adds an extra sweet sparkle”. Well, there you go, that isn’t your average gourmand candle, this is exotic, complex and refined. Side note: If you missed our blog post The Thanksgiving Table, we talked about scented candles and food, I see this candle as one that could be burned in the same room as a holiday meal.</div>

There you have it. I can no longer claim to not be a big fan of gourmand candles! </div>

Votivo Joie de Noel Holiday Candle</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
I lit this <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/votivo-joie-de-noel-holiday-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">candle</a> in the kitchen and sat down to work. Thirty minutes later, wrapped up in work projects, I had completely forgotten it was lit, when I said to myself what smells so good? Ohhhhh it’s the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/votivo-candles/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Votivo</a> <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/votivo-joie-de-noel-holiday-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">candle</a> I’m writing about later today! This candle fragrance is really amazing, there is a sultriness to it that really pulls you in. The name <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/votivo-joie-de-noel-holiday-candle/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Joie de Noel</a> is Joy of Christmas in French, and while it is a beautiful <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/votivo-seasonal-candle-collection/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">holiday candle fragrance</a>, it is something I wouldn’t limit to just the holiday season. It’s unique, sophisticated, sexy and rich, not your typical <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/votivo-seasonal-candle-collection/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">holiday fragrance</a> and exactly the type of fragrance I love! It has an old-world vibe to it. The description provided speaks of a centuries old tradition, darkened hearty cut spices, woody strands of aged rosemary, fragrant spruce and delicate hemlock boughs all mulled with herbs and thickened with honey combs in a blackened coper kettle over an open cherry wood flame, and it really paints a picture of what this candle is all about.</div>

A perfect hostess gift for the holiday party season but frankly, I’m keeping mine! There is something about this candle that keeps pulling my attention from my work, makes me stop, pause and take it in. Something we all need to do sometimes.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
This is <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-winter-balsam/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">one exquisite, gorgeous candle.</a> It is large, a full 15.5 oz in a beautiful thick, heavy, and slightly iridescent spruce colored glass, it’s an absolute stunner! Of course, with all <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-winter-balsam/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">LAFCO candles</a>, it’s beautifully packaged, so it makes the ideal gift, and now that the gift-giving season is upon us, it’s time to stock up. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
It’s the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-winter-balsam/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">fragrance</a> though, oh this warm, woody, sophisticated fragrance, that has me gobsmacked, it’s utterly divine. Described as “Nostalgic and Woody” (I won’t disagree, and I’ve never been one to back down from a good fragrance debate!) “A vibrant green earthy fragrance that captures the exhilarating aromatic energy of a winter forest." The opening is an inspired mix of mint-infused eucalyptus, balsam fir needle, and spicy oud wood. Sandalwood, patchouli, and vetiver give the creamy texture to the heart, while incense, cedarwood and burnished amber create a warm and inviting dry down.” This is what I love so much about <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-winter-balsam/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">this candle</a>, it’s so complex, it could almost be a high-end niche perfume. Creamy sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver, oud and amber and you have the base for some of the chicest scents on the market. Then throw on the fir needle, eucalyptus and incense and you have the perfect winter candle (although let’s be honest, this could be burned any time of year!) I love it, it’s going to be my go-to this season! </div>

That being said, I know some of you have been long-time fans of LAFCO’s famous Tree candle, and that has been your go-to holiday candle. OK, I know change can be hard, but it can also be <em style="box-sizing: inherit;">really</em> exciting, breathe new life into old ways, and it’s a great way to mix things up a bit. Reality check, I know we are just talking about candles here, not life changing decisions, but some of us do get a bit attached to our favorite candles, me included, so if you are looking for your new holiday favorite, give <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-winter-balsam/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">LAFCO Winter Balsam</a> a go, you won’t regret it!</div>

This <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/capri-blue-seasonal/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">candle</a> is festive, sparkly and fun!! Makes me want to throw on a party dress, slip on my highest heels and grab a glass of Champagne! Speaking of which, I know this candle is called <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/capri-blue-seasonal/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Alpine Juniper</a>, and the description is “juniper & fresh citrus with balsam fir”, but there is something more to it than that, much more. I get an effervescent, sparkling champagne punch kind of fragrance with a sprig of balsam fir and a slice of orange on the side. Must be the fresh citrus, or maybe it’s all the shimmery, twinkling glitter that has me a bit dizzy but, I can swear I smell champagne! </div>

Once lit, the balsam does begin to take over more, making this a brilliant holiday candle. It’s not heavy, it’s fresh, lively and carefree. The green glitter jar sets the mood for any party or just light it up and have your own party, revel in the fun, make merry and just plain ole have a good time! I know my 20-year-old kids will try to snag it from me when they see it, going to have to hide this one for sure!</div>

If you consider yourself a scented candle fan, and you don’t know the story of <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/rigaud-cypres-large-standard-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Rigaud</a>, then do I have a little candle history for you! Rigaud has been around for quite a while, since 1852 when Jean-Baptiste came to Paris to collaborate with the laboratories Grimault & Cie, who were famous for their aromatic products. Jean-Baptiste made soon made his way into the world of perfumery and “<em style="box-sizing: inherit;">hit upon the idea that introducing a new aromatic plant would be like adding a new note to my keyboard, as it were, and that only on that condition would I be able to create new products bearing the stamp of originality</em>.” His first major innovation was his essence of Ylang-Ylang followed by the Kanaga flower of Japan. He eventually became the official perfume supplier to Her Majesty the Queen of the Netherlands, then to the royal family of Greece, and finally perfumer-distiller to the Russian Imperial Court. </div>
<figure style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 0px;"><a data-featherlight="" href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/images/blog/Rigaud_Cypres_1542252177.jpg" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;"><img data-image="1542252177" src="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/images/blog/Rigaud_Cypres_1542252177.jpg" style="border-style: none; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: italic; height: auto; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;" /></a></figure><div style="box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(74, 74, 74); color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.800000011920929px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
This however is where the story becomes very interesting for us candle lovers. “<em style="box-sizing: inherit;">Eventually Henri Rigaud’s son Mario, the grandson of Jean-Baptiste, took over the company and in the 1960s, his wife Viviane turned the boutique into a veritable private salon, like a boudoir where a great lady receives her peers. A lover of homes and interior decoration, blessed with unerring taste, Viviane Rigaud was also an innovator. With her husband, she was the creator of the first scented candle. Mario Rigaud developed and patented an innovative wax formula. This was an original formula for a soft wax whose main characteristic was that it perfectly revealed the natural ingredients that make up the Rigaud perfumes and allowed them to be faithfully transmitted. And that is how the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/rigaud-cypres-large-standard-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Cyprès candle </a>was born – dark green in color, presented in a container of hand-blown glass, tied with a red ribbon and with a silvered metal snuffer cap. It was the 1960s, and the <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/rigaud-cypres-large-standard-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Rigaud Cyprès</a> candle was an international success. The scent of the Rigaud candle soon became the height of chic in well-appointed homes, and even in the White House when Jacqueline Kennedy was its mistress.”</em> Read More Here <span style="box-sizing: inherit;"><a href="https://www.bougies-rigaud.com/en/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">History of Riguad Perfumes.</a></span></div>

And there you have it, the beginning of the scented candle. When you bring Riguad into your home it’s a part of candle history, and if it was favored by Jacqueline Kennedy, you know it must be refined, elegant and quality. I’ve personally had Riguad in my candle repertoire for years, as I carried the line in my Illume store back in the 1990’s. <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/rigaud-cypres-large-standard-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">The Cypres candle</a> is the first scented candle, and still one of the finest on the market. Riguad’s description reads “I bring all the richness of the Mediterranean forests into your home. I am timeless, generous, refined. I create a perfect harmony that is a blend of the aromatic sweetness of lavender, the woody, crisp notes of pine needles, and the powerful aroma of cedar wood.”</div>

NEST Fragrances Founder, Laura Slatkin, set out to create an exceptionally <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-sparkling-cassis" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">glamourous fragrance</a> fit for all festivities. A consummate entertainer, she spends days prepping to host a party to ensure the evening is superbly seamless.

In it’s pretty classic NEST decorated glass, essence of pomegranate, Mandarin orange, pine, clove and cinnamon blend lusciously into vanilla and amber to add that splash of elegance and set the holiday mood. I love this candle! It has the essence of pine, reminding me that it won’t be too long to get out the vintage ornament collection, however, this isn’t just a “Christmas Tree” scented candle. <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances/nest-fragrances-nest-holiday/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">NEST Holiday</a> has a bit of juicy fruit with pomegranate and Mandarin, a dash of spice and a lovely deep rich amber and vanilla base that all come together to partner exquisitely with the pine. Personally, I get a slight ember note in the background that makes this candle encompass all that an evening during the holiday season means to me, it’s nostalgic, romantic and cozy.</div>

I have it on my kitchen counter and every time I walk by I think “what smells so good?” and then I see the pretty glass sitting there. You see, I do perfumery for many candle and perfume brands, so my kitchen cupboards are filled with perfumery supplies, candle fragrances, and loads of candles, so for a fragrance to stand out in my home, it has to be pretty spectacular! </div>

There is a special place in my heart for <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/linneas-lights-soy-candles/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linnea’s Lights candles</a>. When I lived in Seattle, I opened a small store filled with good-smelly things, and Linnea’s Lights was one of my favorite brands to sell. Not only were their candles an easy sell because all a customer had to do was take a whiff and they were sold, but I loved to take them home on a regular basis and enjoy them in my own space. <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/linneas-lights-soy-candles/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linnea’s Lights</a> was relatively new back then, and it makes me happy to see how they have expanded their collection and established their place in the vast candle market.</div>

<a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/linneas-lights-soy-candles/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linnea’s Lights</a> candles are hand-poured with a pure, all-natural soy wax using fine fragrances and <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-golden-plum-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Golden Plum</a> is certainly one fine fragrance! Described as <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-golden-plum-candle/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Velvet Plum, Honey & Cardamom</a>, I would say it’s all that and more. The fragrance is soft and sweet but with a slight spice and a powerful warm throw. Maybe it’s the effect of the double wick that gives the throw an extra boost, but it took over my kitchen very quickly and meandered into other rooms in my place quite unexpectedly. Needless to say, I now have a new <a href="https://www.candlesoffmain.com/product-category/linneas-lights-soy-candles/" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #3d70b2; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linnea’s Lights favorite!</a></div>

Be sure to try some of the other scents in the collection, Forest Fir, Cashmere, Winter are a few of my favorites this time of year, and of course no one can beat their Pumpkin, which for me is hands down the best pumpkin candle on the market.</div>

As far as the candles go, one of my personal favorites from this line is <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/illume-pineapple-cilantro-vanity-tin/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Pineapple Cilantro</a>. The blend of citrus fruits and cilantro is super yummy, so don’t burn this candle while hungry. If you’re looking for something more tailored for the spring, I highly recommend<a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/illume-sweet-hibiscus-vanity-tin/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;"> Sweet Hibiscus</a>. It’s a light floral, but the addition of sugarcane makes it smell like candy! And the bright coral packaging, are you kidding me? It’s adorable! Let’s be honest, packaging is almost as important as the actual fragrance! <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/illume-candles/illume-candles-illume-essentials/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Illume</a> is killing it with these spring fragrances and I can’t wait to burn them into the summer too!</div>

Aside from the delicious fragrance, if you’re like me and you love fun colored candles, you’re going to obsess over this one. The wax is a stunning tangerine orange. It is impossible to be in a bad mood when looking at this beauty. While you’re enjoying the sight of this candle, don’t forget about the <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/woodwick-candles/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">best feature of WoodWick</a>, the wooden wick! The crackle is so soothing, perfect for a relaxing weekend brunch.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/woodwick-candles/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">WoodWick’s candles</a> are long lasting and-the best part-affordable! They burn for 75-110 hours for 25 bucks! That means more money to spend on champagne! WoodWick candles are seriously #homefragrancegoals.</div>

What I love most about these candles is that each one is inspired by nature with a delicate floral touch. The <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/rosy-rings-beach-daisy-botanica-glass-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Beach Daisy candle</a> bring the elements of the beach into your home…without the sandy mess! This candle is light, airy and provides a beautiful ambience. <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/rosy-rings-beach-daisy-botanica-glass-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Beach Daisy</a> is perfect for you if you’ve never tried a floral and want to begin incorporating those notes into your candle collection! This floral is super subtle and ads a touch of sweetness to this sea salt dream.</div>

Not sure if you want the <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/rosy-rings/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">full-size candle</a>? No worries, the tins are equally as great! The tins have two wicks and come in the most adorable packaging! With a 24 hour burn time for $11, they’re the perfect size to sample the fragrance. Let me give you a quick warning though: you will get addicted!</div>

<span class="s1">In our view, this fragrance represents notes of a linen or textile that has been sun-dried, versus machine dried. After several minutes of experiencing this new NEST scent, we are sure you’ll pick up on several subtle floral notes, including apple blossom and white orchid. <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances-linen/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration-line: none;">NEST Linen</a>, available in <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances-linen/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration-line: none;">3 candle sizes </a>and a reed diffuser, is best described as a textile that has absorbed the nuances of a summer day after blowing in a breeze for hours. Elements of nature— florals, greens, fresh air, are all captured in this linen fragrance, surely making it a NEST classic for years ahead. </span></div>

Cooler weather is finally here and that means seasonal candles! And pumpkin everything. Pumpkin and spice and.. is that lily of the valley?</div>

<a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-pumpkin-pomander/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration-line: none;">LAFCO’s Pumpkin Pomander candle</a> is love and nostalgia at first sniff. I couldn’t have been more excited to spark this one up. The intoxicating aroma is both familiar and surprising. Comfortable and inviting, yet nuanced and deep.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
It’s a bite from Proust’s madeleine- you are immediately whisked off to a place and time that you once remembered.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
The sleek and sophisticated silver box is supremely giftable. The substantial hand-blown glass jar is a lovely iridescent deep orange. I enjoyed watching the warm glow as the evening light waned, and the flame burned down into the night.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
This is a candle to enjoy with loved ones. At the dinner table, with good conversation. At parties and holiday gatherings. Burn it it in the foyer, in the kitchen, or in your family room.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
It’s a gourmand scent that goes both ways- the pumpkin and spices (ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, mandarin, and clove) are tempered with a fresh floral blend at its heart (heliotrope, muguet, lavandin, and geranium.) How interesting!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
The throw isn’t overpowering yet fills a room and lingers. Choose the <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-15-5-oz-signature-candle-pumpkin-pomander/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration-line: none;">larger size (Signature)</a> for big, open spaces, or the <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/lafco-6-5-oz-classic-candle-pumpkin-pomander/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration-line: none;">smaller size (Classic)</a> for cozy nooks.</div>

<span style="font-size: 16px;">Take a walk on a warm, summer day through your fragrant herb garden. What do you smell? What are your favorite aromas? From sweet, citrusy lemongrass to the earthy fragrance of floral lavender — when it comes to summer herbs, this truly is the best time of year to enjoy lush green fragrance. Because herbal scents are always fan favorites, many candle makers have captured these scents to enjoy indoors as well. Using fine fragrance and essential oils, here are our favorite herbal inspired home fragrances:</span></h2>

One of our favorite offerings is what was previously known as the French Collection from Votivo (now included in the Votivo Aromatic Collection). This fragrance collection was comprised of scents reminiscent of what you would find in the French countryside. From St. Germaine Lavender, to Sumatra Lemongrass, to Rosemary Garden and Provencal Honey, there are some beautiful herbal notes to enjoy. These nature-inspired scents are available in both a 6.8oz candle and a reed diffuser that lasts for approximately 4 months. I love how purely natural these fragrances smell; pure and simple but with heightened sophistication.</div>

If you’re looking for a fresh and revitalizing herbal fragrance, look no further than LAFCO’s Mint Tisane (Meditation Room) available in a candle, diffuser, diffuser refill, and bar soap.

We’ve seen some pure, true-to-nature fragrances but its exciting to be able to enjoy blends that combine bright herbal notes with earthy or spicy to create a unique and enticing blend. NEST fragrances is known for creating sophisticated blends unrivaled by most. <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances/nest-fragrances-moss-mint/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Moss and Mint</a>, and <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances/nest-fragrances-lemongrass-ginger/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Lemongrass and Ginger</a> are not any different. Earthy in nature, you can smell the “green” of Moss and Mint, creating an environment like that of a cool, moist wooded forest. And while lemongrass can be found easily in home fragrance collections, NEST blends it with ginger, eucalyptus, thyme and sage to create a complex scent with a bite of spice.</div>

From NEST Fragrances:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
NEST Founder Laura Slatkin describes her new fragrance as “the perfect balance between vintage beauty and modern sophistication.” The fragrance concept for <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances/nest-fragrances-white-camellia/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">White Camellia</a> came to Laura Slatkin while attending a fashion exhibit at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. She was captivated by the beauty of a wedding dress designed by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel. It was adorned from top to hem in intricately handcrafted artificial flowers known in classic French couture as parurier floral. Inspired by this elegant work of art, <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product-category/nest-fragrances/nest-fragrances-white-camellia/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">White Camellia</a> was developed with careful attention to detail. Just like all NEST Fragrances, this new scent is certain to fill any home with a luxurious bouquet of fragrance.</div>

Blue Agave Featuring Tart Lime is NEW From Linnea’s Lights!</h2>
<div class="post-content" style="background-color: white; color: #747474; font-family: 'Quattrocento Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; orphans: 2; widows: 2;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
They’re here! The release of new home fragrance from Linnea’s Lights is always a moment to celebrate! There are few other boutique candle lines that have such unique fragrance creations.</div>
<div class="">
It is also hard to find truly pure soy candles that are also incredibly fragrant, since soy wax often doesn’t hold fragrance as well as paraffin waxes. Still, Linnea’s Lights always provides a fragrant experience for the senses with their complex candles fragrances.</div>

<div class="">
<i class=""><a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-ocean-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"><br />Escape to the Sea! Ocean </a></i>has returned again this year as a popular Spring and Summer scent. With notes of salty sea air, rain, and water lily, Ocean provides a clean and fresh scent. Truly a breath of fresh air with light floral notes.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
</div>
<div class="">
</div>
<div class="">
Linnea’s Lights introduced two new fragrances this Spring: <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-blue-agave-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Blue Agave</a> and <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-linden-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linden</a>.</div>

</div>
<div class="">
I love <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-blue-agave-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Blue Agave</a> for this time of year; the perfect balance of green, floral, and airy. Notes of water lily create a light floral scent and the greenness of cactus and agave bring some earthy components to the fragrance. Add a twist of lime and you’ve got a perfect, slightly exotic, escape from the chilly winter air that is holding on.</div>

Though, in February it may seem a little too early in the year for floral fragrances (especially in parts of the country where winter is still in charge) <a href="http://candlesoffmain.com/product/linneas-lights-linden-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Linden</a> is the perfect fragrance for someone wanting a soft and gentle floral fragrance. Linden blossom creates a light floral, slightly honeyed fragrance, while neroli adds in a little citrus. White patchouli mellows the linden and neroli.</div>

Voluspa has re-introduced a true fan favorite! <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/voluspa-japanese-plum-bloom-jar-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Japanese Plum Bloom</a> is back and encompasses the perfect balance of sweet, floral notes with just a little zest added by a hint of currant. If you’re a long-time Voluspa fan, you’ll remember how popular <a href="https://candlesoffmain.com/product/voluspa-japanese-plum-bloom-jar-candle/" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">JPB</a> (as it was called) was in the past. The scent itself is soft and whispering as not to overpower, but enough to intrigue the imagination of whimsical places only found in a dream.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
This fragrance is perfect for anyone who prefers floral, sweet overtones with a hint of fruitiness, but does not want an overwhelming scent. Elegantly displayed in jars with a lilac mercury glass finish or tins with a subtle extravagance of pale lilac and rich magentas. It is, in a word, majestic.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you’re looking to find the decadence of tart, citrus scents combined with warm, earthy notes, look no more!

How to Layer Candle Fragrances</h2>
<div class="post-content" style="color: rgb(116, 116, 116) !important; font-family: 'Quattrocento Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<div class="post-title entry-title" style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
It’s a great day when you find a fragrance that you really adore. Something that really speaks to you and you can’t get enough of. After a while, though, you may want to mix things up and create a fragrance that is uniquely yours. When people walk into your home they are welcomed by something they’ve never experienced before, creating a special memory for them.</div>
<div class="post-title entry-title" style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
I like crafting new sensual experiences every night, mixing and blending for fun and variety. I put a different fragrance in each room of my home so as I travel around I pick up the different notes to peak my senses. Like cooking, layering fragrance in your home can be a creative and rewarding experience.</div>
<div class="post-header">
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you haven’t started layering fragrances yet, don’t be afraid! It can be a lot of fun and it’s hard to go wrong. Here are some tips to guide and motivate you:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Floral fragrances blend well with other florals, citrus and woody notes</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-maison-noir-tuberosa-di-notte-candle-2-wick-metallo-tin.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Voluspa Tuberosa di Notte</a>, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/nest-fragrances-bamboo-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">NEST Bamboo</a>, and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/k-hall-peony-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">K. Hall Peony.</a><i>Tip: try to only select one heady floral (like Tuberose) and the others bright clean florals unless you like a heavy/over-the-top floral scent.</i></div>
<div class="separator">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Tree fragrances blend with other trees, woody notes and citrus</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/thymes-frasier-fir-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Thymes Frasier Fir</a>, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/archipelago-botanicals-black-forest-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Archipelago Black Forest</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/votivo-sumatra-lemongrass-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Votivo Sumatra Lemongrass </a><i>Tip: when you bring your tree home or set up your artificial tree, surround your home with a variety of green, tree fragrances to make you feel like you’re in a winter wonderland. It will create a lasting memory of your special day.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Gourmand fragrances blend with vanilla and spicy notes</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/vanilla-orchid-and-almond.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">NEST Vanilla Orchid & Almond</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/trapp-no-2-exotic-spice-large-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Trapp Exotic Spice</a>. <i>Tip: try to stick to just one gourmand fragrance at a time as they can be dominating. Have the other fragrances support the primary gourmand scent. Keep this blend simple or you’ll feel overwhelmed by scent. </i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Amber blends well with other amber, vanilla and woody notes</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-baltic-amber-candle-3-wick-tin.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Voluspa Baltic Amber</a>, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/thymes-lotus-santal-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Thymes Lotus Santal</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/illume-amber-dunes-talisman-tin.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Illume Amber Dunes</a>. <i>Tip: these blends are good for romantic evenings at home or for relaxing with a good movie or book. These grounding fragrances will help you slow down and unwind. Don’t use this blend for too long or too often or you’ll never get off the couch. </i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Fruity notes blend well with other fruity notes, sugar, vanilla and amber</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-santiago-huckleberry-candle-3-wick-tin.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Voluspa Santiago Huckleberry</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/votivo-red-currant-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Votivo Red Currant</a> or <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/aura-cosmic-blood-orange-vanilla-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Aura Cosmic (orange vanilla)</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/capri-blue-volcano-jar-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Capri Blue Volcano</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-goji-tarocco-orange-candle-jar-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Voluspa Goji Tarocco Orange</a>.<i>Tip: don’t overdo the sugar — pick one heavy blend and the other lighter blends to balance the load.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Citrus blends well with other citrus, florals and woody notes</b>. For example, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/archipelago-botanicals-luna-jar-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Archipelago Luna</a>, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/trapp-no-10-lemongrass-verbena-large-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Trapp Lemongrass Verbena</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-french-cade-lavender-scalloped-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Voluspa French Cade Lavender</a>. <i>Tip: don’t overdo it with the citrus notes or you’ll be too wound up and high above the clouds. Add in an earthy floral or woody note to help bring the fragrance down to ground level. </i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<b>Anything with vanilla blends well with anything else with vanilla</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/trapp-orange-vanilla-large-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Trapp Orange Vanilla</a>, <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-bourbon-vanille-corta-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Voluspa Bourbon Vanille </a>and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/aquiesse-sandalwood-vanille-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Aquiesse Sandalwood Vanille</a>. <i>Tip: have fun with this one! Be sure to avoid artificial vanilla fragrances when you have company over as they can be headache-inducing. (Avoid the cheap brands.) We don’t have any on our website. </i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
This one is tricky, but sometimes <b>florals blend nicely with sweet notes</b>. For example: <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-maison-noir-tuberosa-di-notte-candle-12oz-jar.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;">Voluspa Tuberosa di Notte</a> and <a href="http://www.candlesoffmain.com/voluspa-bourbon-vanille-corta-candle.aspx" style="color: #333333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Voluspa Bourbon Vanille</a>. <i>Tip: use caution here, it’s easy to get nauseous on these blends. Even the most expert candlemakers tread lightly with this combination for good reason. They can be very sickening. </i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
One combination you likely want to avoid is gourmand fragrances with florals. I’ve never known that to work, but other than that, it’s really hard to mess up. So go ahead and play around and create something new and uniquely you!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<i>What’s your favorite fragrance combination?</i></div>

Nothing feels like the Holidays like the scent of a Christmas tree. While some like that fresh, vibrant scent you get from a freshly cut fir tree, others like a more earthy scent that encompasses the crisp green needs and warm woody notes from the bark and trunk of the tree. Finding the perfect Christmas Tree can be fun and frustrating. Here’s our guide to help you find the perfect tree scent, without the frustration.</div>

<h3 style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51) !important; font-family: Lustria, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif !important; font-size: 16px !important; font-weight: normal; line-height: 24px !important;">

<div>
<span class="producttext"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
Arguably the best Christmas tree scented candle out there, the Thymes Frasier Fir scent comes in a huge variety of products. This scent is wildly popular with Candles Off Main customers. Deb from Ohio calls this scent “<em>stunning</em>,” adding that “<em>it has the perfect amount of sweetness and just the right amount of warm sandalwood to give it a soothing effect. Very crisp and uplifting fragrance</em>.” Cheryl from Arizona calls this candle, “<em>the one</em>.” She wrote, “<em>For years I have been searching for a real “pine” fragrance to compensate for an artificial Christmas tree. This is it! I burn this through the entire holiday season to evoke the memories of the past and create new ones for the future</em>.”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
I imagine that this powerful scent is what the Griswold home must have smelled like when Clark attempted to bring an enormous tree home for the holidays in <em>Christmas Vacation</em>. If you’re an artificial tree devotee, this candle will bring the forest scent home with one little flame.</div>

The Christmas Sage candle by Votivo is one of my favorites. It’s earthy, gritty, herbal and incredibly grounding. When the holiday festivities of bubbly champagne and sweets can make you spiral out of control, this scent is perfect for bringing you back down to earth. I love this scent on cool or raining nights when I need to relax and unwind. The travel tin is great for weekend ski getaways.</div>

The luxurious French line Rigaud has been around for decades. Ever since First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy introduced Rigaud to the homemakers of the US in the 1960’s, the intensely fragrant Cypres candle has been a Christmas tradition. With its elegant and distinguished history, Rigaud Cypres is the most complex tree fragrance in this list, reflecting more of a cologne or soapy scent than true Christmas Tree. If you’re looking to make a statement, it’s easy to do with a Rigaud Cypres candle.</div>
