Ever since spending more time at home, I’ve become increasingly obsessed with candles. And my love for these little scented babies has only grown stronger, especially now that we’re getting into the colder months and the thought of lighting a winter candle while cozying up with a good book beckons ever so temptingly. I! Need! One million! More! Candles!!! (If you relate to that sentiment, then welcome. You’re in the right place.)
We’ve spoken at great length about the wonders of a good candle—from luxury votives that are worth the splurge to affordable options that look and feel a lot more expen$ive than they really are to even hacks that’ll make your candles last longer. But you know what we haven’t talked about yet? The best candles on Amazon.
But there’s a lot to sift through, which is why I’ve taken on the task of curating only the best, top-rated Amazon candles you won’t want to return (also known as my personal wish list). Scroll through for a plethora of picks, from mini candle sets to vegan wax alternatives to seriously aesthetic votives you’re gonna wanna reuse. Happy candle shopping!
