hunsonhomes

Because nothing says ‘fall vibes’ like setting your home on fire… with a candle, of course!



Happy Scented Candle Day to all you candle lovers out there! Yes, it’s a real day, and it’s here to give us an official excuse to light ALL the candles and cozy up on the sofa. Whether you’re a pumpkin spice purist, an apple cider aficionado, or just someone who loves cozying up with a good smell, we’ve got you covered. Let’s dive into the ultimate guide to fall candles that’ll make your home feel like an autumn dream (without burning down the house)!




1. Pumpkin Spice Paradise


Let’s get this one out of the way first — because let’s be real, fall without pumpkin spice is like a candle without a wick. Pumpkin spice candles are perfect for creating that warm, cozy vibe, making your home smell like you’ve been baking all day (without lifting a single wooden spoon, which we also have here at Hunson Homes). Think creamy pumpkin with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of clove.


Scents to Look For:


• Pumpkin with hints of cinnamon or clove for a warm, spiced scent.

• Blends with vanilla or marshmallow for an added creamy sweetness.




2. Apple Orchard Adventure


If pumpkin’s not your jam, then how about a trip to the orchard? Apple-scented candles bring that fresh, fruity smell with a hint of spice. Picture yourself wandering through rows of apple trees, minus the bees and sticky fingers. Apple cider candles usually combine notes of apple with cinnamon and clove — a combo that’ll make your home smell like fall in a bottle. And common... it's just divine!


Scents to Look For:


• Apple combined with cinnamon or nutmeg for a spiced fruit vibe.

• Blends with caramel or vanilla for a richer, cozier apple scent.




3. Woodsy Wonderland


For those who want their home to smell like a forest retreat (minus the bugs), woodsy candles are the way to go. These candles bring the outdoors in, with notes like pine, cedar, and maybe a hint of moss for authenticity. It’s the perfect scent if you want to feel like you’re hiking through autumn leaves but in the comfort of your living room.


Scents to Look For:


• Cedar or pine mixed with eucalyptus or sage for a fresh forest vibe.

• Earthy notes like moss or sandalwood for a deeper, grounded scent.





4. Fireside Feels


Ah, the fireside candle. Nothing says “cozy” like the warm, smoky scent of a crackling fire — especially if you don’t have an actual fireplace (or aren’t a fan of hauling firewood). Fireside candles are a blend of smoky wood, amber, and sometimes a hint of leather, making it the ultimate cozy vibe for chilly nights.


Scents to Look For:


• Birch or smoked wood combined with amber for a true fireside effect.

• Notes of marshmallow or vanilla for a hint of sweetness to balance the smokiness.





5. Sweet Vanilla Bourbon Dreams


Want something a little more luxurious? Enter the vanilla and bourbon combo! This scent is all about warmth and a little bit of decadence, like sipping a fancy drink under a cozy blanket. Vanilla and bourbon candles are perfect for creating a sophisticated yet comforting vibe that’ll make you want to curl up and stay put.


Scents to Look For:


• Vanilla with hints of bourbon or whiskey for a warm, rich scent.

• Blends with caramel or amber for a touch of sweetness and depth.





Pro Tips for Fall Candle Lovers


1. Trim That Wick – Keep your wick trimmed to about 1/4 inch to avoid the dreaded black smoke and get a clean burn. No one wants their cozy vibes ruined by soot!

2. Burn Smart – Let the candle burn long enough to melt the entire top layer of wax on the first burn. It’ll help your candle burn evenly and last longer (and we all know candles aren’t cheap these days).

3. Double Up on Scents – Feeling adventurous? Try lighting two complementary candles at once (like apple cider and vanilla bourbon) to create your own custom fall blend.

4. Repurpose Those Jars – When your candle has finished its last burn, keep the jar! They’re perfect for holding small trinkets, creating mini planters, or even more fall decor.
