30 Best Valentine’s Day Candles 2022

With 110-to-150-hour burn time, you’ll be greeted with florals as soon as you light it, but won’t be overwhelmed with the fragrance thanks to the fruity top notes 

The “Love You” soy candle has notes of lavender, geranium, warm mahogany and earthy wood. 

Named after the ancient Greek goddess of love, this candle is rich with scents of ylang ylang and sandalwood. 

Candy and Valentine’s Day go hand and hand! The best-selling Be Mine candle for Bath & Body Works smells like a cotton candy dream. Plus, the jar is covered in hearts so it also acts as decor. 

The Etsy seller has a bunch of incredible scents to pick from, but we like the rose option as it comes with rose quartz stones, which encourage unconditional love.

The New Moon begins on February 1, a perfect time to set intentions for your upcoming month. The Manifestation Candle from Sakara, which has a citrus scent, promises to help cleanse your space for new beginnings. 

Aptly named Boudoir Rouge, which loosely translates to red bedroom, you’ll enjoy notes of cherry and violet. Reviewers say even when it’s not lit, you can still smell the candle. 

The moody red glass jar will instantly add ambiance to your space, and with citrus and bergamot top notes mixed with Jasmin and rose mid-notes, you’ll instantly be transported to a place of luxury. 

The jar reads “Our 1st Valentine’s as Mr. & Mrs.” with your choice of the name and date. You can pick from five different scents, making it the perfect gift. 

A two in one sort of a deal? The instructions on this candle say after it’s been lit and a small pool of melted wax has formed, you can use it as a massage oil. Of course, you should always make sure to test a small area of skin before applying elsewhere. 

At 10.5 oz, the candle packs a calming combo of amber and patchouli. Perfect after a long day at work (Valentine’s Day is on a Monday this year!). 

Whether you’re throwing a Galentine’s Day party or just want to gift a little something to your friend, they’ll LOL after reading the famous quote by Leslie Knope. “Lady friends leaving their husbands or boyfriends at home, and kicking it, breakfast style. Ladies celebrating ladies.” 

You can choose from four candle shapes: cubed heart, heart candlesticks, vintage perfume bottle or two lovers hugging. You can pick either pink or white and each is scented with the smell of strawberries and cream. 

The brand offers a refillable vessel, which means you can re-order the wax without having to throw away the stunning pink marble container. Lavender, fig tree and peach nectar are just a few of the aromas they offer.  

You’ll get three tapered candles, each which should be burned as you create a self-love ritual for yourself. 

Pineapple and coconut might not be traditional Valentine’s Day scents, but surrounding yourself with strength and energy sounds pretty great to us. 

Pop some real bubbly as you light this candle, which smells like the most luxurious bottle of Champagne ever as it has notes of: pink grapefruit, sparkling champagne, raspberry, French cassis, violet leaves, rose petals, crushed sage, crisp mint and grape leaf. Yum! 

Gift it as a reminder for someone special or to yourself. What we love is that the jar is filled with heart-shaped wax melts creating a truly sweet presentation. 

“Intoxicating scent, I am hooked,” one person wrote, and with the sea salt, Jasmin and vanilla scent, we couldn’t agree more. 

The ivy, musk and lemon blossom balance the rose out beautifully to create a soft but noticeable aroma. 

One reviewer summed this cute candle up perfectly. “Love this scent! It may sound a bit odd but I swear to you this candle smells like Strawberry Crème Savers. Not too sweet, but not too creamy it’s a perfect balance. Nice throw has my large living room smelling amazing long after burn.” 

Honor yourself with a zodiac-inspired candle that also comes with four pieces of crystals/gemstones, a zodiac sign bead and an additional charm pendant. There are over 10 amazing scents to pick from. 

Nest is known for its luxury candles, but this version might just take the cake as the best one. Rose combined with rich scents like leather and patchouli beautifully blend sweet and strong. 

Made in France, the Litchi candle has the scent of the traditional lychee fruit, so it’s full-bodied, but not overpowering. 

Choose between two scents: white amber and mandarin and scarlet citrus. The charming speckled vessel adds a unique touch.  

The 3-wick candle is housed in a concrete container, which can be used again and again after the wax is gone. 

Embedded in the wax are celestite and clear quartz stones, as well as dried sage, Jasmine and St. John’s wort, all meant to help create a relaxing environment. 

For something a little more on the nose, these lip-shaped candles come in red and pink, and can create the ultimate Valentine’s Day ambiance as they float in water. 

Notes of cinnamon, tobacco flower and vanilla will fill the room once you light it. It can be used indoors or outdoors, and the design on the vessel is two hands making a heart, adding for an extra dose of sweet. 

Homesick makes some of the best candles on the market, and both the Date Night and Love Letters smell amazing and look incredibly cute.
