There’s nothing better during this time of year than putting up all of your holiday decorations while lighting some perfectly scented holiday candles. I am a candle fanatic during the holidays, constantly searching for the best scents to match my Christmas aesthetic and to gift to my family and friends for the holidays. My go-to store is the jack of all trades when it comes to soaps, lotions, and new holiday candle scents, aka Bath and Body Works.
Every year, Bath and Body Works debuts their signature holiday scents — like Vanilla Bean Noel, Winter Candy Apple, and Sweater Weather — and releases new scents that easily become cult favorites. Everyone’s favorite holiday scents are different — from sweet sugar cookie variations to masculine woodsy scents to spicy gingerbread blends, there’s more than enough to choose from. Luckily, Bath and Body Works has released several new fragrances for the holiday 2023 season that are perfect for gift exchanges, and will spice up anyone’s home.
- Crunchy English Toffee
-
If you want your home to smell like a nutty sweet treat, you have to snag the new Crunchy English Toffee candle. This is a must for those who enjoy sweet and decadent scents that leave your guests in the mood for sugar.
- To All a Good night

This midnight blue candle gives off total A Christmas Carol vibes with the moody notes of lavender and a cool winter breeze. This is the perfect candle to light while being stuck indoors on a snowy night.
- Balsam & Bergamont

The Balsam & Bergamot candle is for the clean aesthetic besties who love anything neutral and balanced. This candle has a modern and sleek look with notes of fresh balsam branches mixed with zesty bergamot.
- Winter Pear Forest

What’s a holiday candle collection without fruity fragrances? Winter Pear Forest is a balance of sweet pears and the wintergreen leaves of the forest. A great option if you can’t choose between a woodsy or sweet scent!
- Spiced Citrus Grove

In need of a candle that emphasizes comfort and warmth? This Spiced Citrus Grove candle has the sugary and citrusy smell of an orange, mixed with cinnamon and nutmeg to bring in a toasty holiday ambiance.

Don’t have a mistletoe in your home this holiday season? Just buy this Golden Berry Mistletoe candle and call it even. With its notes of sugar and crisp berries, you’ll be glad you chose it over an actual mistletoe that doesn’t smell as delicious.
