How do I choose a holiday candle as a gift?
Think about the recipient's favorite fragrance family or hobbies. Sweet and playful scents are great for someone who loves fruity or dessert-inspired fragrances or baking, while warm vanilla and cashmere notes suit someone who prefers cozy, comforting scents and enjoys a movie night in.

How can I make my home smell festive for the holidays?
Start by choosing a fragrance that complements the mood of your space. Fresh pine and balsam can create a classic winter atmosphere, while vanilla, caramel and cinnamon bring warmth and sweetness. Place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, and always follow the candle's safety instructions while burning it. You can also layer home fragrance similarly to how you layer body fragrance. For example, burning Fresh Balsam at the same time as Vanilla Bean Noel can create a unique and festive atmosphere by combining an outdoorsy fresh scent with a sweet vanilla- it perfectly encapsulates the holiday spirit!
