Honestly, is there anything better than a brand new candle? Now that I work from home, I have one burning pretty much at all times. And now that it’s autumn, I am alllll about the cozy scents. Bring on the cinnamon, the apple, the spice, the pumpkin. YES PLEASE. If you’re like me, I thought you’d appreciate knowing what my absolute favorite fall scented candles are!

But first… what is hygge?

I wouldn’t exactly call ‘hygge’ a new trend by any means, but every fall it comes into play. Pronounced hoo-ga, this Danish concept is all about coziness and comfort. But the Danes take it one step further and believe that the feeling of being cozy leads to a happy life. Your well-being is boosted through the feeling of enjoying the simple things in life and being content.

I’m not kidding — I really feel like a candle expert, especially when it comes to fall scents. In fact, one of my first jobs out of design school was designing candle packaging. Every time we kicked off a new fall collection, we’d have a long meeting where we’d pass around scents and decide on which fragrance was right for the new collection. It was always my favorite meeting! Usually I like more traditional fall scented candles like pumpkin spice, apple cider, and cinnamon.

There are so many cozy scents now though! I’ve personally been loving anything that is campfire inspired. The smokier, the better. Palo santo falls into this category, too. Basically, I just want our house to smell like a cabin at all times.
