Light these scented picks to fill your home with essential oils and other natural fragrances.

Some people base their candle choices purely on scent or aesthetic, but serious candle connoisseurs know that the wax makes all the difference. A lot of the popular scented candles, like the ones you light during the fall months or Christmas season, are made with Paraffin wax, which comes from petroleum. Soy candles, however, are a worthy investment because they have a cleaner, longer burn. In other words, they won't smoke when you light 'em, and can last 80+ hours. The all-natural wax comes straight from vegetable soybeans, so many also claim to be vegan-friendly and free of artificial ingredients.

There are so many different kinds of soy candles available, whether you're looking for something with a wooden wick or reusable packaging. That's why we've rounded up the very best soy candles — some 100% soy, other blended with vegetable or coconut wax — from top brands like LAFCO, Mrs. Meyer's and Otherland. Since you shouldn't have to have to blow your entire budget in one go, we made sure to include a range of price points, starting as low as $6. Now, work your way down this list to see if something that lights your fire (pun intended).

Along with their Earth-friendly cleaning products, Mrs. Meyer's has a line of plant-based candles, available in small tins and glass jars. All of the scents are inspired by flowers you'll frequently find in the garden, like geranium and honeysuckle.
