Let these scented candles make a case for a fragrant, feel-good February
February can be a polarizing month. With love being the central topic of conversation and celebration, it’s a time when we find ourselves feeling especially cherished or especially single. Regardless of which side of the spectrum you happen to find yourself on, we’re spotlighting a sensorial way to usher in love month, alone or otherwise.
Scented candles are a great way to set the mood, no matter what the mood you’re trying to set is. Gearing up for a romantic Valentine’s weekend? Don’t forget to pack a candle. Enjoying a weekend solo? Sounds like a scented candle would make it better. Trying to forget the ex you spent last Valentine’s with? You guessed it: extinguish that old flame and light a scented candle instead.
Ahead, we’ve gathered our favorite candles—all locally made, all shoppable online—to make your February a little better.
