Candles are an often overlooked but essential element in home decor that can transform a room into a cozy and inviting space. Not only do they provide a warm, soft glow, but they can also bring back memories and create a sense of nostalgia. In modern times, candles have become a staple in home decor and are now available in a wide range of styles and scents, making them perfect for any room in the house. Whether you want to create a sense of charm and mystery or simply add a touch of elegance to your home, scented candles are a versatile and effective choice. So if you want to come home to a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere at the end of a long work day, consider adding some scented candles to your home decor.

Candle junkies.com has listed the top 5 candle scents sold in the country according to www.yankeecandle.com. These scents are:

1. Pink sands

2. Macintosh (apple)

3. Autumn wreath

4. Clean cotton

5. Christmas cookie

Personally, my favorite scent is clean cotton. I also enjoy spa-like candles that have a relaxing aroma, but aren't too overpowering.

When selecting a candle, it's important to consider not only its appearance but also how it will make you feel.
