1. Spring candle scents: awaken fresh beginnings
Spring is such a beautiful time of year, bringing with it a sense of renewal and energy. To accent the beauty of the season inside your home, Emmerse, a luxury artisanal retail based in Brookhaven, GA, recommends selecting candle scents that capture the essence of the season. Paraben and phthalate-free candle scents like peonies, lavender, and lilacs are winners for the season. The signature seasonal scents for spring capture the vitality that evokes the freshness of blossoming gardens and morning breezes. Think lavender wafting through open windows or the zesty burst of grapefruit to brighten your day.
Refreshing citrus and airy aromas
As winter fades, citrus scents capture spring’s crisp, revitalizing atmosphere, creating an uplifting environment perfect for the season’s renewal.
Sofie Martinez, owner of Canton, GA-based candle company, Oasis Studio Candle, shares her perspective: “For spring, the best candle scents are those that feel fresh, airy, and evoke new beginnings. I personally enjoy mahogany, lavender, and clean cotton.”
The freshness of spring is echoed by Carolina Crafted Candle Co. in Hickory, NC, stating, “When burning a candle for spring, you want to feel like you are sitting in one of those commercials where the sun is shining, the windows are open, the curtains are blowing in the wind, and you can smell the cool breeze.”
