I recently purchased a Glade Apple Cinnamon Candle:

In the past I have purchased the Glade Vanilla Candle.
While I have previously only purchased candles available in my area, I am looking to branch out.

Which scents and candlemakers would the users here on The Orb recommend to an amateur candler?

7-8 years ago I bought this matching candle and soap set from someone on etsy and it was very nice. The scent was hard to describe, it was like some mixture of incenses and like potpourri but mellower and kind of fresh smelling. Not sure how to communicate it but I liked it. Try etsy.

i always liked patchouli candles, but hey... thats just me.
I also like rose, but i know that's one that smells weird to some people based on genes (or people dont like it or something), so if that's you i wouldnt get a rose candle.
I would also recommend anything "wood" or "rain" as they are nice neutral smells.






what da?!!!

you can clip dryer sheets to curtains and fans and your whole place will smell like fresh laundry. i like this option cause it's impossible to burn anything

the only good candle is a single unadorned uncomplicated Beeswax taper
