When it comes to adding a pleasant, fresh smell to the home, few accessories work as well as scented candles. With the light, appealing smell that slowly fills the air as the candle burns, they can be a wonderful addition to any home. Regardless of whether you appreciate scented candles because of the calming scents they offer or their ability to cover up less pleasant odors– such as cooking smells, finding the right candle can make a wonderful addition to your home. We have tried a variety of different types of scented candles and we found several that we think are particularly pleasing. If you are looking for a new scented candle, consider how one of these might fit your needs.
