Jul 26, 2025
What Are the Most Popular Candle Scents? (7 Best Scented Candles You’ll Love) - Wick of Hope

Over the last few years, scented candles have been so popular. From people’s experience, it’s clear they fill your space with a soothing aroma that melts your stress away. That’s the magic of scented candles.

From bright morning light to peaceful nightfall, fragrances have a unique way of setting the mood. Whether you’re drawn to fresh and zesty, delicate florals, or deep, comforting notes, non-toxic candle scents create the perfect tone.

But with so many options out there, you may wonder: What are the most popular candle scents that people actually love?

Let us show you the best scented candles that can transform your space. If you’ve been searching for the perfect scented candles for your home, you’re in the right place.


Top 7 Scented Candles You’ll Love

Citrus scented candles:  

Citrus-scented candles like lemon, orange, or grapefruit bring a lively feeling of freshness wherever you light them. They’re perfect for kitchen, bathrooms, or giving your workspace a morning boost. With their fresh, uplifting vibe, citrus candles can turn any space into a feel-good zone. Plus, they have natural antibacterial properties that help purify the air naturally, making your home feel even fresher.

Coffee scented candles: 

Nothing beats the cozy smell of a fresh brew, right? Coffee-scented candles make your home feel warm and super inviting like you’re in your favorite little café. They’re perfect for living rooms, reading corners, or anywhere you want that cozy vibe. Coffee candles set a warm, familiar tone, making them ideal for lazy mornings or chilled-out afternoons. And yes, they can totally lift your mood (without the caffeine crash).

Floral scented candles: 

Floral-scented candles are my personal favorite. They add a classical touch of beauty and charm. They’re your go-to when you want to create a calm, romantic atmosphere. 

Perfect if you’re planning a cozy dinner or want to set a romantic vibe. They’re known for helping you unwind and feel a little more at peace. Perfect for when you need to slow things down. 

Spa scented candles: 

Spa-scented candles give you that at-home retreat vibe. We light one up in our meditation spot, or bedroom whenever we need to de-stress. They set a calm, peaceful vibe that’s perfect for unwinding after a busy day  or for those moments when you just need a break.

The Wick of Hope Zen Oasis Candle | Grapefruit + Sage Scented Candle rests on a wooden tray with grapefruit, eucalyptus, stones, and sage nearby, filling the space with its calming spa-like aroma.

Spicy scented candles: 

If you love that warm feel, spicy-scented candles are where it’s at. Scents like cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg fill your space with cozy vibes especially great for fall, winter, or holiday gatherings. They make your home feel bold, warm, and super inviting. Spicy candles are perfect for creating that nostalgic, comfy mood that wraps you up in comfort.

Vanilla scented candles: 

Vanilla-scented candles are my wife’s favorite because of their total classic vibes. Their soft, sweet fragrance makes any room feel extra welcoming. They’re great for bedrooms, living areas, or anywhere you want that classic vibe. Vanilla sets a sweet tone that’s calming and warm like a gentle hug for your senses. No wonder it’s one of the most loved candle scents out there.

Woody and Minty: 

They both are refreshing. Woody scents like sandalwood or cedarwood bring a grounding, earthy feel, while minty scents like peppermint or spearmint brings a cool, refreshing touch to your space. Light them up in your study, entryway, or workspace. They're perfect when you want to feel calm, refreshed, and focused.

The Wick of Hope Serenity Luxe Candle in Smoky Woods + Cashmere is a luxury white scented candle in a glass jar with a sleek black box, ideal for fans of smoky woods fragrances.

So, We’ve Explored the Top 7 Scented Candles…

You can pick your soy-scented candle based on the vibe you want to create. Whether It’s about the energizing zing of citrus, the cozy warmth of vanilla, or the relaxing feel of spa scents, there’s a scented candle out there that’s perfect for you.

And remember, scented soy candles are non-toxic, making them a safe, cozy, and totally vibe-friendly way to make your home feel extra special.
