A Definitive Ranking Of The Best Bath & Body Works Holiday Candles

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Iowa chapter.

Around this time of the year, Bath and Body Works graces humanity with an emporium of holiday scented candles. Since the store has so many different types of holiday candles to choose from, it is hard to pick just one…or two…or three candles to lift your holiday spirit in the comfort of your own home! Which is why the other day, my nose and I investigated every holiday candle at my local Bath and Body Works store. Here are the top 10 best smelling that will ring in the holiday season:

10. Snowflake & Citrus

This exotic candle smells as if you’re somehow waking up to a tropical snowfall near the equator.

9. Winter Candy Apple

This fruity candle gives off aromas of sugary sweet candy apples hanging on the Christmas tree.

8. Frosted Cranberry

This sweet smelling candle is a red cranberry explosion.

7. Vanilla Snowflake

This creamy smelling candle is a frosty rich vanilla flavor that will make you dream about fluffy snow.

6. Marshmallow Fireside

This cozy smelling candle smells as if you are toasting giant, gooey marshmallows by a natural fireplace in a cabin in the woods.

5. Evergreen

This natural smelling candle allows you to transport yourself into an evergreen tree forest with snow glistening on the pine cones.

4. Merry Cookie

This sweet-tooth-satisfying smelling candle smells like a fresh batch of your gradmother’s christmas cookies hot out of the oven.

3. Winter

This dreamy smelling candle is like taking a walk through a winter wonderland with sleigh dogs.

2. Peppermint Marshmallow

This unique smelling candle gives the typical peppermint flavor candles a twist with a marshmallow touch to make the peppermint calmer but just enough.

1. ‘Tis the Season

This strong smelling candle combines all sorts of classic holiday scents infused into one! IT’S LIT.
