Christmas candles and wax melts fill your home with the scent of the holidays. The blend leans on notes like pine, fir, cinnamon, cedarwood, and clove. Together they smell piney, spiced, and festive. A traditional holiday pick is our Frankincense & Myrrh wax melts, warm resin and incense for the season. A nostalgic pick is our Vintage Christmas wax melts, bayberry, moss berry, and warm spice. A true tree scent is our Fraser Fir wax melts, mild citrus over woody fir balsam.

What makes a scent smell like Christmas?

Most Christmas scents come from four places: the tree, the kitchen, the fruit bowl and the church. Tree scents are fir, pine, balsam and cedar. Kitchen scents are cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger, vanilla and butter. Festive fruit means cranberry, orange, apple, plum and bayberry. And the old church scents are resins like frankincense and myrrh. The best holiday blends often borrow from more than one: Christmas Hearth pairs orange spice and cinnamon from the kitchen with fir, pine and a hint of smoke from the fireplace.

Christmas tree scents

  • Balsam and Cedar: pine, eucalyptus, cedarwood and sweet balsam. Our best-selling Christmas scent in November and December.
  • Fraser Fir: a light citrus top over green, sappy balsam fir, the freshly cut tree.
  • Christmas Tree: fresh-cut boughs of pine and balsam.
  • Christmas Pine: cold air over a stand of pine, with warm resin rising off the bark.
  • Mistletoe: fir needle, cedarwood, fir balsam and oakmoss for a deeper forest.
  • Frosted Juniper: evergreens and juniper with a cool camphor chill and a little citrus.

Kitchen and baking scents

Festive fruit and spice

  • Country Christmas: bayberries, cranberries and apples with nutmeg and clove.
  • Wassail: oranges, lemons, apple cider and cranberries, the holiday punch bowl.
  • Holly Berry: berry and plum with cinnamon and clove.
  • Vintage Christmas: bayberry and warm spice, nostalgic and old-fashioned.
  • Christmas Eve: pine, orange and cinnamon, the night before.
  • Winter Wonderland: cool peppermint and fiery cinnamon with crisp apple and nutmeg.

Fireside and incense scents

Christmas candles or wax melts?

Every scent above comes as both. Our soy candles add a flame's glow to a mantel, a dinner table or a windowsill, and every candle style comes in every scent. wax melts need a warmer but no flame, and they make it easy to give each room its own scent or switch from tree to cookies in an afternoon. Melt cubes also mix: a cube of Fraser Fir with a cube of Seriously Cinnamon smells like a tree in a kitchen full of baking.

Christmas candles as gifts

A candle in a holiday scent is one of the easiest gifts to give. Our jar candles with cork or metal lids are ready to wrap, and a pack of wax melts slips into a stocking. If you are not sure of someone's taste, a tree scent like Balsam and Cedar or a warm spice like Seriously Cinnamon is a safe bet.
