*insert an “it’s lit” joke here*
Whether you’re trying to set a sexy mood, a cozy vibe, or a focused space for WFH, I’ve got one word for you: candles. With so many options out there, I can pretty much guarantee that there’s a candle out there you’ll be into. Scent is a powerful thing, so using a candle with essential oils can go a long way in creating whatever ~vibe~ you’re going for.
Is every scented candle an aromatherapy candle? Well, not exactly. An aromatherapy candle uses essential oils derived from botanical elements like herbs, plant rinds, leaves, and bark. And they might give you a lil boost of relaxation or energy, depending on the essential oil you're dealing with. Plus, many aromatherapy candles are made with a blend of natural ingredients like beeswax or coconut wax, so if you’re trying to go au naturel with your candle things, they’ve got you covered.
Whether you’re trying to harness some ~zen~ for your self-care routine or turn the romance up for your candlelit dinner date, there’s sure to be a candle in the below list that's perfect for you. To help you out, here are 20 of the best aromatherapy candles money can buy rn.
