Christmas is the most popular time of the year for people to burn candles. They can be used at gatherings with family and friends or be given as gifts for Christmas. Whatever the case may be it’s always a nice feeling to have a candle burning during the cold months to cozy up with.

Today we will be sharing some of the best and most popular candles for Christmas time. Unsure of what candles to light up during this holiday season?

Allow us to recommend some of our personal favorites for this time of the year!

(The candles with a ‘*’ beside them are my current personal favorites for Christmas)

1. Woodfire by Illume Candles *

We actually included this in our favorite fall candles list from 2015, but we love it so much that I had to add it for winter of this year.

Price Range: $$$

2. Golden Chestnut by LAFCO

“Chestnuts roasting on an open fire” in a candle! This elegant candle from LAFCO will transform your home into a cozy holiday cottage in an instant.

Price Range: $$$

3. Frasier Fir by Thymes *

Want a candle that will almost instantly fill a room with the smell of a Christmas tree? This candle is a well-known favorite for achieving that very fragrance. And not with that cheap car freshener-type pine scent. No, this candle smells like the real deal.

Price Range: $$$

4. Sparkling Cinnamon by Yankee Candle

I don’t usually go with too many Yankee candle scents but this one is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. One of those warm and inviting cinnamon scents that is perfect during the holidays.

Price Range: $

5. Spruce Cuttings by Voluspa *

The scent of freshly cut Colorado Blue Spruce trees are expertly captured in this holiday favorite by Voluspa. This candle comes in a variety of sizes but we prefer the two wick tins as we find they have great scent throw.

Price Range: $$

6. Twisted Peppermint by Bath and Body Works

Bath and Body Works bring out a bunch of new scents every year but this is one of their tried and true holiday classics. If you find this scent in stores it will have a new design but you can also find older styles online.

Price Range: $

7. Winter White by Illume Candles

Winter White is a new fragrance from Illume for 2018 that features notes of evergreen and cypress, mixed with white peppercorn, cardamom, and citrus. I’m feeling festive already!

Price Range: $$$

8. Visions of Sugar Plums by Voluspa

“The combination of tart white plums and dried cherries, dusted with powdered sugar, toasted hazelnut, and lemon zest.” A great choice for those that don’t want to go the woodsy route this Christmas.

This one is a sugary scent that still manages to somehow be fresh at the same time.

Price Range: $$

9. Feu de Bois (Woodfire) by Diptyque *

The Grand, 5-wick, 53 oz Feu De Bois (Woodfire) Candle

This candle perfectly captures the fragrance of a wood-burning fireplace on a winter night. Diptyque are experts at creating scents and this is one of their best sellers. The ultimate in wood fire scented candles, this 5-wicked, oversized candle comes in at 53 ounces! It will be more than enough to scent the house over the entire holidays.

Price Range: $$$$

10. Balsam & Cedar by Illume Candles

This scent is a cult favorite scent by Illume all year round but the best time of the year that you can burn it is around Christmas. Pictured above is the sanded mercury glass version which I think looks the best but there are plenty of sizes and containers to choose from on their website.

Price Range: $$$
