how to layer scents in seasonal transitions

Courtney Jones

transitioning into a new season is the perfect time to learn how to layer scents in your home! during times of change, you often still have different “types” of candles floating around… maybe some brighter citrusy candles are lingering from summer, but you are shifting into darker spiced candles for fall. this can cause some scent clashing, so you want to make sure you are pairing your candles well with each other around your house!

we are going to give some examples with a few of our common scents. in the summer two of our bestselling scents are fern + rain and juniper + rose. these candles are light, airy and floral… hard to pair with certain fall candles.

if you are burning fern + rain, we would suggest to move towards a fall candle that is more woodsy instead of something spiced- maybe a darker rustic candle like oak + moss or black spruce.

if you are burning juniper + rose, go with a more fruity sweet scent, like cranberry + spice.

in addition to being aware of the scents you are mixing, you can also be mindful of where you place the candles physically in your home- think about how your house flows, and how scents in adjacent rooms may intermingle.

An example of this is if you are burning your juniper + rose in one room, add the cranberry to the next, then you could play with shifting to the beloved harvest moon in the following room. the cranberry + spice becomes a transition room that connects the two scent spaces!

these tips are to help transition from our summer bestsellers, but don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions about your candle scents! one of our expert candle makers would be happy to help you create your custom home space…
