These 14 Candles Are Basically Spring In A Jar

As the days grow longer, spring is the perfect time to swap out your richer, wintry scents for something a little lighter and brighter. Enter: spring candles. Designed to breathe new life into your home, these seasonal scents offer an instant refresh, evoking open windows, blooming gardens and freshly laundered linens – with just a flick of a match.

Spring scents tend to lean towards the green, the floral and the citrusy — think neroli, bergamot, lily of the valley, cut grass and wild herbs. Notes like honeysuckle, jasmine and mimosa are perennial favourites too, often softened with touches of creamy musk or white woods to ground the fragrance without weighing it down. There’s also a growing trend for aquatic and ozonic notes, which give that clean, just-rained feel that perfectly mirrors the season’s April showers.



A good spring candle should feel like opening the windows on a sunny morning, or a walk through a dewy garden in April. Whether you favour something crisp and citrusy or soft and floral, there’s a spring candle to suit every space, from your bedside table to the kitchen windowsill.



We've rounded up the best spring candles worth burning now, from under-the-radar British brands we love to cult favourites delivering mood-boosting fragrance in chic, minimalist jars. Here's what to look out for this season.
