Deck the halls with Frasier fir, cedarwood, incense and ginger. Isn't that how the tune goes?

Not that we needed any reminding, but the practice of burning a candle while you are home is one of those luxuries that you can just feel. After all, our sense of small is highly connected to our emotions. Needless to say, holiday candles hit a sweet spot for the majority of us, whether you prefer crisp pines, bitter citrus, or the waft of incense and ember. Even if you're not a "candle person," there are few things easier to kick up your festive atmosphere than a seasonal scent to welcome the winter holidays. Of course, with winter comes more time indoors, but a good old fashioned (or modern—one of these chic picks is actually refillable) candle can conjure warmth, comfort, and Christmas cheer.

While there are the classic scents we associate with this time of year—frasier fir, evergreen, pine—the fragrances to choose from are seemingly endless. From black cherry to mandarin, thyme to cedarwood, and more, you're sure to find something you (or a loved one) will fall for. Plus, candlemakers have created stylish vessels for storing their waxy wares, making them perfect for gifting, or simply to bring a festive sparkle to your tabletop.
