Although we could all use a little luxury, the often prohibitive price tags aren't the most practical (or appealing). Enter luxury candles: the perfect way to feel pampered without blowing your entire salary. These best-smelling candles come in divine fragrances, with notes that'll transport you into a different space.

Of course, “luxury” is subjective; what you consider self-indulgent, may not be everyone’s cup of pinky-up tea. This is especially the case when it comes to scents, as there are so many to choose from. For example, if your idea of luxe is ultimate relaxation — think DIY spa treatments and cozy pajamas — you’ll want to collect earthy, smoky fragrances. Conversely, the exhilarating scents of citrus notes will give your space an energy boost, while essential oils like peppermint and rosemary can help you hone your focus.

But luxury candles aren’t solely defined by their aromatic enhancements. More often than not, they also make for stunning pieces of decor for your space. Some candles come encased in stylish vessels decorated with patterns, while other candle makers mold their wax into artistic structures that demand attention. They say the devil is in the details, but in this case, we’d go as far as to say that the details are what make a luxury candle that much more covetable.

So whether you’re looking for a luxury candle to add to your collection, or want to treat yourself to a new sensory experience, we have some suggestions. Our advice? Toss on those silk pajamas, pour yourself a glass of wine and let these heaven-scented luxury candles relax your mind.
