"Jo Malone's Blackberry and Bay candle was the first “luxury” candle I ever owned. The fact that I remember this detail with such clarity should be enough of a testament to its quality, but if not, I'll say this: It's my most frequently-complimented candle (a universally beloved scent!), it's the candle I've re-purchased more than any other (which says a lot, because it burns slow!), and it's the only scent that manages to fill a big, open space (but doesn't overwhelm a small room)." — Lucia Tonelli, Social Media Editor

"There's nothing better than snuggling next to a cozy fire during the holiday season, but when your traveling and constantly on-the-go, finding time to relax fireside is almost non-existent. That's why I love lighting this black spruce and cardamon scented candle when I'm away. Not only does it make me feel warm and fuzzy, but it's name (portable) makes me feel better about bringing it along for the ride." — Deena Campbell, Beauty Director

“This candle is the exemplification of fall coziness. It has a smokey undertone but also includes notes like vanilla and pink pepper to round it out. Keeping it lit for even a little while will make your entire space feel like you’re sitting next to a woodsy fire just as the weather begins to change. It's one of those scents that signals the change in seasons, and it’s one that my family knows to give me as a gift year after year.” — Julia Marzovilla, E-Commerce Writer

"File this under "too pretty to burn but smells too good not to." The aubergine and gold "Attar № 36" candle looks luxe and elegant but most importantly smells delicious. It layers spices like nutmeg and clove over a base of sandalwood and amber with the subtlest floral finishing notes for an intensely warm aroma. It's the perfect candle to light for a dinner party—fitting since it was crafted by Priyanka Chopra Jonas and her restaurateur partner Maneesh Goyal as the signature scent of their chic NYC-based Indian eatery, Sona." —  Neha Prakash, Entertainment Director
