What do you think about when you hear the word “fall”? For me, it absolutely has to be the sound of leaves crunching beneath your boots as you walk down the sidewalk. I know, it might sound a little like a Hallmark movie, but it’s what comes to my mind. Fall is my absolute favorite season. Not only for the beautiful colors and cooler weather but for some of the best-scented candles that accompany it.
Pumpkin spice, vanilla, fruity, and earthy scents. These are all scents that come to mind when I think of autumn. In this article, I’m sharing some of the best fall scents for your candles from our wonderful friends at CandleScience so you can bring a little fall to your candle line or into your home.
Fallen Leaves
Featuring a 2″ square label on matte white paper. Get the template.
An absolute classic when it comes to fall, don’t you think? I can imagine it now. The beautiful colors of the changing leaves are scattered throughout yards and streets.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including cinnamon leaf, cinnamon bark, patchouli, cedarwood, vetiver, and sandalwood.
Vanilla Chestnut
Featuring a 2″ x 3 1/3″ oval label on matte white paper. Get the template.
You can’t think of the fall season without thinking about chestnuts. Chestnuts are known for ripening in September and October, the perfect time of year for this delicious snack. Add in a dash of vanilla and you can’t go wrong.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils including cedarwood, fir needle, patchouli, lemon, geranium, and coriander seed.
Apples & Maple Bourbon
Featuring a 2″ square label on silver metallic paper.
Apples, maple, AND bourbon? Now that sounds like heaven to me. Anyone else picturing wandering through an orchard with a glass of bourbon in hand?
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including cinnamon leaf, tangerine, mandarin, and orange.
Spiced Honey & Tonka
Featuring a 1 5/8″ scalloped square on glossy white paper. Get the template.
I don’t know about you, but any scent that includes the word “spiced” in it is a win for me. A hot cup of spiced tea with honey on the couch with curtains wide open so you can look outside at the beautiful fall colors. Happiness.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including lemon peel and coriander.
Cinnamon & Vanilla
Featuring a 2″ round label on matte white paper. Get the template.
Call me biased, but this has got to be my absolute favorite CandleScience scent of all time. Cinnamon and vanilla, two of my all-time favorite scents and flavors. Please excuse me while I make a quick coffee run and grab a spiced vanilla latte.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including gurjun balsam.
Peppercorn Pomander
Featuring a 2 1/2″″ scalloped round label on kraft paper. Get the template.
The smell of pepper is one of those scents that really stands out. A warm, woodsy scent that goes hand in hand with the orange and clove. The description alone makes me want to pack up and move somewhere that gets to experience all 4 seasons. But for now, I shall rely on these fall candle scents to take me there.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including orange, black pepper, and clove leaf.
Cranberry Apple Marmalade
Featuring a 2″ square label on glossy white paper. Get the template.
Cinnamon and orange, a combination that can’t lose. This is a good scent to not only use during the fall but good to use as you transition into the winter and the weather starts to cool.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils including orange, cinnamon leaf, and cinnamon bark.
Brandied Pear
Featuring a 1 5/8″ scalloped square on kraft brown.
Pardon me as I wipe the drool from the corner of my mouth. I have always been a sucker for pears, and the occasional glass of brandy doesn’t hurt either. A combination of both and this smells like I scent I not only want in a candle, but in a perfume, lotion, etc… I’ll take it all.
This fragrance oil smells like ripe, juicy pear and cask aged brandy.
Pumpkin Caramel Crunch
Featuring a 2 1/2″″ scalloped round label on matte white paper. Get the template.
And finally, our last scent that absolutely screams “fall”. Pumpkin. Caramel. Crunch. That’s right. Need I say more? I didn’t think so.
This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including orange and lemon oil.
