It’s that time of year where you’re staying home more and getting cozy on your couch with your new fall decor and your favorite Hallmark Harvest movie. It makes you want to bake a pumpkin pie or make some hot apple cider. If you have time for that, that’s great, but if you don’t, that’s where these best fall candles of 2021 come in. If you want to feel all warm and fuzzy with just a light of a wick, our list is sure to do the trick. With classic scents including pumpkin, apple, cinnamon and nutmeg, these autumn scents will bring the extra dose of ambiance your home needs. If your fall smells a little less sweet and a bit sharper, we have candles that don’t smell anything like a treat you’d want to eat.
And because candles can bring a lot to a space, we’ve included both inexpensive and more luxury options for you to pick from. You’ll see your favorite brands here — Bath & Body Works, Yankee Candle, Woodwick — as well as some favorites from small businesses on Etsy. This way, you have both your everyday candles, as well as the ones you bring out on very special occasion (yep, exactly, like when a Hocus Pocus is on!). Now all that is left to do is put some in your cart, grab your favorite fall blanket and enjoy everything the season has to offer.
