There’s nothing like a good-smelling candle filling up the room with your favorite scent. From holiday scents that smell like seasonal baked goods, to clean linen reminiscent of laundry fresh out of the dryer, there’s a scent for every mood, vibe, and occasion.
But with all that being said, sometimes we just need something to help us chill out. A little aromatherapy goes a long way when you’re tired, overworked, stressed out, and just need a solid time out from the hustle and bustle of life.
Ready to bring out your inner zen? Here are 3 super relaxing candle scents you definitely should invest in. Best part? They’re only under $30!
Mala Milk & Sugar, $22
Nothing says “comfort” more than the smell of fresh baked goods floating through your home. This Mala Milk & Sugar scent gives all the warm, cozy goodness of making homemade sugar cookies with no real baking necessary. The delicious notes of creamy vanilla and subtle cinnamon make this clean, long-burn candle worth every light.
Just Bee Lavender Fig, $26
Lavender is the go-to relaxation scent because it’s known to treat anxiety, improve the body’s melatonin levels, and even alleviate painful period symptoms. Just Bee took this incredible-scented flower and paired it with sweet, sour, and creamy notes of fig, creating a perfect morning-time candle that’s nothing short of fresh, crisp, and downright soothing.
YIELD Pomelo Candle, $28
Inspired by Pomelo, a bright, zesty citrus fruit from Southeast Asia, this candle of the same name smells and feels like a warm, sunny day at the beach. Characterized by notes of refreshing bergamot, sweet yet tart currant, and earthy himalayan salt, Pomelo‘s balanced yet vibrant composition is just what you need to cleanse your energy for the week.
