To help make it easier for you to embrace colder months ahead, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorites to round out your olfactory collection. Keep reading for the 13 winter candles BAZAAR editors always keep on hand for a little extra ambiance.

1 Ash Candle

Boy Smells

“Whenever the weather gets colder, I’m always in search of a smoky scent that feels just as clarifying as my palo santo ritual. This candle actually features the scent as a main ingredient, making it the perfect addition to my collection.” —Sierra Mayhew, content coordinator

Notes: firewood, charcoal, and palo santo

2 Ivy Large Scented Candle

“Anything that’s pink has my name on it, and I’ve been crushing on the Loewe candle for quite some time. Its unique ribbed shape adds texture to any home while also providing the perfect scent.” —S.M.

Notes: ivy and delicate florals

3 Holiday Luxury 4-Wick Candle

Nest New York

“I’m Jewish, but I’m obsessed with Christmas—so I burn this giant, luxurious, holiday-scented candle year-round to make sure my house always smells like cozy vibes. The scent isn’t cloying or sweet but rather sophisticated, and the candle makes a gorgeous centerpiece on any table or mantel.” —Jenna Rosenstein, digital beauty director

Notes: pomegranate, mandarin orange, pine, cloves, and cinnamon with hints of vanilla and amber

4 Boulangerie Jar Candle in Whipped Cream & Pear

“If you’re looking for a candle with a subtle scent, this one isn’t for you. Once lit, Anthropologie’s Boulangerie Jar immediately soaks the air with the kind of cozy decadence that I always crave during the colder months. It comes in multiple baked goods-themed scents, but my favorite is the Whipped Cream & Pear (plus an honorable mention for the Oatmeal Cookie).” —Chelsey Sanchez, associate social media and news editor

Notes: vanilla, fresh pear, whipping cream, and a hint of apple peel

5 Supernatural Scented Candle

“I steered clear of scented candles for a long time, but this clean brand is my entryway back in. For fall, this one hits all the right notes (pun intended) from burning wood to incantations. Bring on the witchy vibes.” —Kerry Pieri, digital fashion director

Notes: cinnamon, geranium, sandalwood, and patchouli

6 Cedar Stack Candle

Boy Smells

“Although woody scents typically concur with fireplace weather, Boy Smells’ Cedar Stack elevates the classic. This candle transports you to a warm fire, but also brings in light floral and spicy notes to cut through the smokiness with patchouli and black peppercorn. It’s cozy, fresh, and snappy all at the same time, and perfect for a cold night in.” —Katie Intner, assistant beauty editor

Notes: juniper berry, Cedarwood Virginia, and tobacco

7 Monroe Candle

L’or de Seraphine

“If I could jar the feeling of a wrapping myself in a cozy cashmere blanket, it would be in the form of this L’or de Seraphine candle. Its combination of vanilla, amber, and musk warms up any room instantly when lit. Also, the vessel itself is a piece of art, so it will look chic on your coffee table.” —K.I.

8 Woods Candle

“I’m a big fan of most of Byredo’s candles, but when it comes to channeling my favorite fall and winter vibes, I typically reach for this one. The smell reminds me of sitting around a roaring campfire in the actual woods, only better.” —Tiffany Dodson, associate beauty commerce editor

Notes: raspberry, Tuscan leather, and white cedarwood

9 Renaissance Langston Luxury Candle

Harlem Candle Company

“Lighting this candle feels like being on the receiving end of a warm hug. Its cozy amber and tobacco notes pair perfectly with a weighted blanket and Netflix binge, or a soothing bubble bath and well-curated playlist.” —T.D.

Notes: nutmeg, jasmine, leather, and amber

10 Sweeter Tings Candle

Better World Fragrance House

“This candle is sexy, I don’t have any other way to describe it! The musky scent isn’t overpowering thanks to it being balanced by notes of Italian citrus, wood, and floral rose—and it really warms up a room. It definitely convinced me that I’m not anti-Champagne Papi entering the self-care game.” —Bianca Betancourt, associate editor

Notes: Italian citrus, precious woods, and floral rose

11 Spiced Cider Glass Jar Candle

Capri Blue

“My favorite part of going apple picking is indulging in a cider doughnut (or three) afterward. Capri Blue’s Spiced Cider candle smells just like a tray of fresh cider donuts—a blend of warm vanilla, cinnamon, and apples—minus a trek to the nearest apple orchard.” —Halie LeSavage, fashion commerce editor

Notes: sparkling berry, grape, harvest apple, cinnamon, vanilla, and Canadian fir

12 Pineapple Evergreen Scented Candle

Lulu Candles

“With nearly 30,000 positive Amazon reviews, I can attest to why this vegan candle is a cult-favorite. Not only does the minimalistic aesthetic make for super chic decor, but the pineapple evergreen scent is the perfect combination of sweet and earthy. And at just under $20, these stylish little candles make the perfect stocking stuffer.” —Laura Galvan, fashion and luxury commerce manager

13 3-Wick Scented Candle

Bath & Body Works

“This candle smells like fall exploded in your house. Fragrance notes like apple and warm clove remind you of fun fall days sipping apple cider. Woody or musky undertones remind you of cozy fall nights at home.” —Mariah Morrison, senior social media editor

Notes: red apple, golden nectar, and warm clove spice
