Here Are the 12 Greatest Fall Candles We’ve Smelled So Far

Reviewers call LAFCO’s Labdanum candle “a divine luxury" in a jar, and honestly, they’re not wrong. It’s one of those rare florals that actually works for fall, thanks to labdanum, the namesake note that’s anything but delicate. The scent profile unfolds like a well-worn novel, layered with oak, sycamore, leather, moss, and a whisper of fossilized amber.

Scent notes: Cistus, floral accord, labdanum absolute, amber, musk, patchouli, vanilla

Wax type: Soy

Burn time: 90 hours

A LAFCO reviewer says: "First, this glass vessel is my favorite so far of all the Absolute line. Second, the candle itself is intoxicating and decadent, hitting every note you would expect from the description. It transports me back into my teens when I used to burn incense in my room. I’ve always loved the earthiness of incense, but now I prefer to burn it without the smoke"
