The Candle Scent You Should Burn, Based on Your Zodiac Sign
Is there anything better than the perfect candle scent filling up your living room or kitchen? The only problem is that there are so many candles out there—it’s almost impossible just to choose one. So, to help you out, we’ll cover the best scent for your sign and provide the ideal candle to start your aromatic journey.
Aries Candle Scent: Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla
Aries, you’re a firecracker. There’s no denying it. And because of that, you’re obviously deserving of a “spiced” candle. But what most people don’t know about Aries is that this sign has a very sensitive side. That’s why your candle, the Bath & Body Works Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla Candle, is the perfect choice. First, you experience the spice, then smell the soothing vanilla.
Taurus Candle Scent: Pine, Cedar, & Musk
Of course, Taurus must have a woodsy, earthy scent like this Evergreen Pine, Cedar, & Musk Candle! This sign is likely the most grounded earth sign of them all. So, Taurus would do well with a scent that continues to bring them in close contact with the ground, the earth, and the dirt.
Gemini Candle Scent: Lemon & Mint
Being an air sign, Gemini would love a scent that fills them up with light and fresh vibes. This NEST Amalfi Lemon & Mint candle will save any bad day by bringing in a scent that stirs up freshness and detoxification.

What warms the heart of a Cancer more than mama’s apple pie? Bring the scent of home (and the promise of a really good dessert) anywhere with the Village Warm Apple Pie Candle.
Leo Candle Scent: Chamomile
Leo has a heart of gold. This sign is warm and fuzzy all around—even if that’s not always what they show you.

What’s more, Leo truly enjoys sunflowers, and Chamomile is like the sunflower’s sister.
