One thing about me? Oh, Ima light a candle. Whether it's during a focused WFH day, before I'm hosting friends to catch up on our fave Bravo shows, or after I'm done cleaning my whole apartment, something about making your space smell amazing just does something for the morale. It's science! I liiive for a good bargain candle, and have damn near every candle brand you can imagine, but sometimes you just want an extra luxurious one to really set off the bad and bougie vibes, ya know?
If you're anything like me, though, justifying the very hefty price tag that tends to come with most luxury candles can be hard. But hear me out: Not only do you deserve to splurge on yourself (and your friends and fam!) every now and then, but fantastic scented candles in chic-as-hell vessels boost your mood, mask weird smells, and convince your guests (and yourself) that you're living your best, fanciest life. Not sure about you, but those sounds like money-worthy causes to me—just sayin'!
