If you’re a self-proclaimed “bad gift-giver,” allow me to let you in on a little secret: If you don’t know what to gift a person , gift them a scented candle. Candles are an almost universally well-received gift. They’re an easy option if you don’t know your recipient that well, and they can be made more thoughtful for loved ones by picking out their favorite scents or using a personalized label.

They act as home decor , and in the case of glass jar candles, the containers can continue to be useful even after all the wax is gone. The candle market is pretty saturated, with so many luxury and affordable brands to choose from, not to mention scents. But if you feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of choices, looking at some of the bestsellers is always a good place to start.



I did some of the hard work for you and rounded up candles from all over the Internet that make great gifts, with both luxe and inexpensive options. Whether your gift recipient is in the mood for something floral, fruity or earthy, there’s bound to be a candle below that would make them smile.
