Whenever I see something with a coat of arms, I automatically know it’s gonna be luxurious. Each one of Cire Trudon’s candles has a gold embossed one on the front. What’s more important is what’s inside: a vegetable-based wax and an organic cotton wick.

A giant high five to Shrine’s marketing team. Y’all know how to stage your products aesthetically. The coconut-apricot wax is hand poured in Los Angeles, creating this delicious, floral scent. 

I think it’s pretty dope that Rathbornes is still using 15th century methods to create timeless candles. Over the years, the brand branched out to reed diffusers and body products, but its candles are still A-1. 

Hello, black marble candle of my dreams. Ain’t no way I’m throwing this away once the wick burns down—especially since Gilded candles are all refillable.

You’re probs familiar with Diptyque, thanks to its iconic oval-shaped logo and expensive-smelling scents. Honestly, any of the brand’s candles are luxurious, but you can never go wrong with a best-seller like Roses.

Wondering what a candle reminiscent of ’80s lipstick smells like? Well, lemme tell ya, it’s FAB. The floral notes of rose water and violet are hit with a hint of morello cherry.

Le Labo is famous for its Santal scents. Santal 26 is a blend of amber, coco, vanilla, and sandalwood. Ever wonder why every trendy NYC hotspot smells so damn good? Well, here’s your answer. 

Yes, Sisley is known for its skincare and makeup, but don’t sleep on its candles. No joke, the first time I lit this 45-hour rose, I thought it was the best thing my nose had ever smelled. The deep purple and yellow wax combined with the logo made it the fanciest thing in my room.

One sniff of this and you’ll be transported to a fancy dinner party. I can’t explain it, but just know that you need it in your life. If you want more specifics, though, it has notes of champagne, saffron, and leather.

Thank you, Jo Malone for combining the smell of orange blossom and water lilies. The black ribbon on the lid makes this candle a perfect gift for a friend—or yourself.

Malin + Goetz has some amazing skincare, haircare, and grooming products. The same rings true with its home fragrances, like this top-rated floral candle. The clear vessel with plain text makes for a chic, minimal design, and it burns up to 60 glorious hours.

I mean, the name of this one really says it all. But if you need to know what F*cking Fabulous really smells like, it has notes of leather, sage, vanilla, and tonka bean for a rich (in every sense of the word) fragrance. Yes, it’s pricey, but it burns up to 40 hours, and sometimes you just feel like splurging after payday.

I wish I was seaside in Greece RN. But, unfortch for your girl, that ain’t a possibility with my funds. This candle transports you to the Aegean sea with its notes of fig and laurel leaves. OK, yeah it’s expensive, but it’s cheaper than a plane ticket. Right? 

This company—created by two BFFs inspired by their love of memes and fab scents—offers incredible fragrances with even better packaging. Combine any saying with either of their two scents: Mango Guava or Spices and Evergreen. 

IDK about you, but I love the citrus smell of oranges and the coziness associated with winter scents. So, when I found this candle, (that combines both!) I. Freaked. Out. Valencia orange, cinnamon, red apple, and clove come together to create a beautifully scented candle. Plus, I’m a sucker for this vintage packaging. 

Think: romance, croissants, beautiful decor, and bouquets of flowers. What comes to mind? Paris! This sweet scent is reminiscent of a Parisian bakery.
