fall candle line inspiration From warm and cozy to sweet gourmand and everything in between, our fall-themed candle collections will help inspire your creativity this season.

Fall is a busy time for many candle makers. Crisp, cool air means more people are burning more candles, folks who plan ahead are prepping for an upcoming gift season, and some eagerly await the return of their favorite fall scents.

Creating your fall collection

With so many fall fragrances, how do you start planning your line? (Seriously—there are six pumpkin scents just from CS!) Avoid any potential decision paralysis and start here.

In this article, you'll discover the scents and containers we selected for our three autumnal candle collections and learn how to translate them to your brand.

Cozy season vibes

You know those scents that somehow smell like the feeling of a soft sweater or blanket? Fragrance notes like musk and moss create a veil of tactile comfort that makes snuggling up at home feel so, so much more cozy and comfy. 

This collection combines those comforting fragrances with classic amber jars, gold lids, and straightforward labels.

Classic fall gourmands

If you're a gourmand fragrance fan, autumn is your season! Scents that smell like sweet treats, baked goods, and orchard-fresh fruits are right at home in a fall candle collection.

We paired gourmand fragrances with color-corresponding ceramic tumblers, then added embeds for a more cohesive collection and a festive touch.

Autumnal nostalgia

Certain smells take us back to specific moments in time. Sometimes, we can recall the exact memory a scent brings forward; sometimes, it's more of a feeling.

A great engagement opportunity, collections that feature memory or experience are an excellent way to connect with your audience. Start by asking questions like:

  • What's your favorite memory of roasting marshmallows?
  • What's more exciting: the loud crunch of fallen leaves or the visual of bright orange and yellow trees?
  • Where is the first place you think of when you think of autumn?

Our autumnal nostalgia collection features atmospheric fragrances that capture our favorite fall memories. Glass lids bring a vintage vibe to simple, straight sided tumblers.
